#37157: why no provide multicore build by default? =( --------------------------+-------------------------------- Reporter: jkuhnert@… | Owner: macports-tickets@… Type: enhancement | Status: closed Priority: Normal | Milestone: Component: base | Version: 2.1.2 Resolution: invalid | Keywords: Port: | --------------------------+-------------------------------- Comment (by jkuhnert@…): I could be using selective memory here but I'm almost certain that value was set to 1 for me. Maybe I changed it in the past but I'm fairly anal retentive and think I'd remember something like that? I've also gone through multiple macports core upgrades so maybe this was a lingering artifact of a previous version. It's one of those two, if it's the latter and not me wasting your time again perhaps a simple one-liner warning message could be output when doing any build by having it always detect number of cores if value not 0. I'm sure there's some fraction of users that would find a reason to hate this option as well but for people who somehow ended up with the non-l33t default it sure would be nice to know there's a way to make it faster. I only share because I love macports so much, but clearly not enough to help. ;) -- Ticket URL: <https://trac.macports.org/ticket/37157#comment:2> MacPorts <http://www.macports.org/> Ports system for Mac OS
