Mikes -j5 workload is AFAIAC, a very realistic workload for building a kernel. My own script I just discovered was using -j8, and that was noticeable, but by no means a killing hit on my poor old Xp2800 Athlon. I pulled it back to 4 for this mornings build and the hit, while less, is still noticeable. Killer hit? No way. Using Mike's v4 patch I think it was called. > Ingo -- Cheers, Gene "There are four boxes to be used in defense of liberty: soap, ballot, jury, and ammo.
