Summary: limit parallelism based on available memory Project: make Submitted by: yost Submitted on: Sun 04 May 2014 03:03:17 PM PDT Severity: 3 - Normal Item Group: Enhancement Status: None Privacy: Public Assigned to: None Open/Closed: Open Discussion Lock: Any Component Version: None Operating System: None Fixed Release: None Triage Status: None _______________________________________________________ Details: In our Makefile, there is a set of parallelizable jobs that use a lot of memory. It would be nice to run as many in parallel as possible without thrashing in virtual memory. It would be nice if there were a command-line option to allow one to express this constraint. The option might say how much memory the largest job in the set is expected to require. _______________________________________________________ Reply to this item at: <http://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?42288> _______________________________________________ Message sent via/by Savannah http://savannah.gnu.org/ _______________________________________________ Bug-make mailing list Bug-make@gnu.org https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/bug-make
