Hi Garrett, Following is the result: # cat Makefile .MAKEFLAGS: -j1 all: /bin/sleep 10 & \ /bin/sleep 10 & @wait # time make all /bin/sleep 10 & /bin/sleep 10 & 0.000u 0.006s 0:00.01 0.0% 0+0k 0+0io 0pf+0w # time make -j1 all /bin/sleep 10 & /bin/sleep 10 & 0.000u 0.007s 0:10.00 0.0% 0+0k 0+0io 0pf+0w The latter version is correct because when specifying "-j", make(1) only forks a shell for all commands. If no "-j" specified, make forks 1 shell for each command. You can see manpage of make(1). _______________________________________________ freebsd-bugs@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-bugs To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-bugs-unsubscr...@freebsd.org"
