But that causes also the "all" to be run in not-parallel, because the meaning of .NOTPARALLEL is: If `.NOTPARALLEL' is mentioned as a target, then this invocation of `make' will be run serially, even if the `-j' option is given. It does not mean, as you appear to imagine, to run only the listed prerequisites in not-parallel. That would be nice! -- Sent via pgsql-hackers mailing list (pgsql-hackers@postgresql.org) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-hackers
