And as evidence of that, I'll point out that I'm continuing to track RELENG_4 (aka -STABLE) on a daily basis; the "make buildworld" on my laptop uses -j6; the "make buildworld" on my SMP "build machine" uses -j8 (I think -- it's definitely higher than 6). [I'd actually go look, but the SMP machine gets turned off after the daily build cycle, and it's at home, while I'm at work.] Ref: g01fd(4.10-B)[1] uname -a FreeBSD g01fd.david.egation.com 4.10-BETA FreeBSD 4.10-BETA #124: Wed Apr 14 06:24:44 PDT 2004 root@d146.catwhisker.org:/common/S1/obj/usr/src/sys/LAPTOP_30W i386 g01fd(4.10-B)[2] (And note that that's only #124 since I replaced the disk drive. :-}) Peace, david -- David H. Wolfskill david@catwhisker.org I do not "unsubscribe" from email "services" to which I have not explicitly subscribed. Rather, I block spammers' access to SMTP servers I control, and encourage others who are in a position to do so to do likewise.
