Marks" To: freebsd-smp@freebsd.org Subject: make question Message-ID: MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: TEXT/PLAIN; charset=US-ASCII Sender: owner-freebsd-smp@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.org I am running 3.3-stable with a smp kernel. Just to make sure I am implementing it correctly I have a duel p2-266 with an intel dakota motherboard...my kernel looks like this.... options SMP options APIC_IO options NCPU=2 options NBUS=3 options NAPIC=1 options NINTR=24 Now I was told when running make to use the -j option. But I have tried numbers from 1 to 20 it seems the larger the number the faster it gets. Is there a convention I should be following to utilize the smp in compiles?
