Follow-up Comment #3, bug #44555 (project make): To reply to a few points I didn't specifically address in my last comment:
* make isn't actually dropping into single-job mode, as can be seen from "make --debug=j", but for some reason it's having trouble starting as many jobs as requested. * no, -O/--output-sync is not required to observe the problem * I didn't spot anything that looked relevant in --trace * like the Makefile generated by mkmk.sh, our build is nonrecursive. Having no make step that takes appreciable CPU time is a lot like our case, where frequently ccache hit rates exceed 95% (multiple developers share ccache via nfs and work with substantially-similar source trees) _______________________________________________________ Reply to this item at: <http://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?44555> _______________________________________________ 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
