How about parallel make ?! Current make world sequence is : 1. make hierarchy mk bootstrap include-tools 1includes lib-tools libraries build-tools 2. make depend all install 3. make makedb However, I seldome just type "make world", I will make step-1 first, and then type "make depend all" in /usr/src/* to parallel make (2 to 3 makes running). Finally, type "make install makedb" I think that there should be no binary-library dependency problem in step-2, if I have fast cpu, much ram (in fact my p-120 with 32mb ram handles 2-3 makes well), parallel make should speed up the whole thing. How do you think ?! :) (ps. and what about making kernel ?!) -- 李 建 達 (Jian-Da Li) 交大資工 E-Mail : jdli@csie.nctu.edu.tw
