I did some further digging and you're right that it isn't enough to just have 746 DAGs that can be easily parallelized, especially when one of those DAGs represents over half of the total number of ports. Pruning out stuff like XFree86 didn't help much either. I was able to quickly get it to around 1100 DAGs, but one of them still contained over 500 ports. :( *off looking for inspiration* -steve To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-ports" in the body of the message
