compile with all available cpu cores

Open divinity76 opened this issue 4 years ago • 0 comments

on multi-core systems, this may significantly speed up the git compiling process. on my laptop with 4 cpu cores rolling Intel Core i7-8565U, this speeds up the git compile process from real 3m6,341s to real 1m17,921s

(that's reduction of 57% ! but varies widely by cpu)

  • PS this may also significantly increase RAM consumption while compiling on multi-core systems, but generally there is a correlation between system RAM and number of cores (ie systems with lots of cpu cores usually have lots of ram as well)
