Hi all I want to thanks the dev of portupgrade. It save lots of my time and work fine. But I just think about our new computer with the lot of core, a standard server have dual proc with quad-core that's mean 8 core availble. In the next version of portupgrade, IMHO it's good idea to have option to make portupgrade working with many proc. Because what I known many ports cannot by compile with «-j8» option. In that case when we make portupgrade --all -b we have just one compilation. It's enough when we have 1 or 2 procs. But now with 8 or more proc.... If portupgrade can calculate the depency and launch many ports build in same time for non-depending ports it's can be wonderful. But it's just a idea..... Maybe it's already in the roadmap ... Unfortunaly I'm not a developpers and cannot help.
