Or your executables. My setup might not be all that representative since I am running a 32bit system on a 64bit kernel (which allows me to run the occasional 64bit executable, probably including VMs). But I really suspect you are hitting some VM limit or bug here. If you have 8 real CPUs, maybe you should tell your VM to utilize only 7 or so at the max. make -j8 would likely still run 8 jobs in parallel, but the virtual kernel would only have seven of them running on simultaneous CPUs at any point of time. -- David Kastrup _______________________________________________ lilypond-devel mailing list lilypond-devel@gnu.org https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-devel
