Hi, Installing ports or upgrading the base system only uses around 50% cpu utilization (measured with the top utility) on my dual core machine. Is there some way I can get higher cpu usage? /usr/src/UPDATING says don't use make -j. I tried installing openoffice.org-2 with make -j 2 but it failed at some stage saying it couldn't find a directory. It works not using -j. I'm using 7.0-BETA1.5 i386 on an AMD 64 system. Thanks Chris
