Re: [racket] raco setup parallel build

I think i just misread the docs. I somehow though that PLT_SETUP_OPTIONS also works for directly calling raco setup which is obviously wrong. When i use -j it works as expected. Sorry for the trouble. As a side note, maybe it's worth to specify these defaults in the docs for raco setups -j

I don't think there's a limit for `-j' --- just maximum values for the default. I'm able to run `raco setup -j 5' on a 32-bit build and `raco setup -j 16' on a 64-bit build, and I don't see any limit in the implementation. So, I'm puzzled that it isn't working for you. At Fri, 3 May 2013 07:27:16

I think it doesn't scale past about 6, which is probably why the limit of 8 is there. Robby On Fri, May 3, 2013 at 7:00 AM, Tobias Hammer wrote: > Good hint. > Only on 32bit linux it's limited to 4 and on 64bit the hard limit seems to > be 8. > It's good as default but i am a bit surprised tha

Good hint. Only on 32bit linux it's limited to 4 and on 64bit the hard limit seems to be 8. It's good as default but i am a bit surprised that i can't even increase it explicitly. I think at least on 64bit OS there should be no limit at all. Tobias On Fri, 03 May 2013 13:53:58 +0200, Robb

It is with a 32 bit build (possibly only under windows, I forget). I believe the issue is that the docs building phase runs out of memory with more. Robby On Fri, May 3, 2013 at 6:47 AM, Tobias Hammer wrote: > Hi, > > is raco setup limited to use a maximum of 4 processors in parallel? I > al
