Here is the tail of the -j2 run: Out of morbid curiosity, why exactly do you run -j'd installworlds? Installworld is practically 100% diskbound, I'd expect it to run SLOWER when it's parallelizing and seeking back and forth between multiple installs at once. -- Matthew Fuller (MF4839) | fullermd@over-yonder.net Unix Systems Administrator | fullermd@futuresouth.com Specializing in FreeBSD | http://www.over-yonder.net/ FutureSouth Communications | ISPHelp ISP Consulting "The only reason I'm burning my candle at both ends, is because I haven't figured out how to light the middle yet" To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-stable" in the body of the message
