When I try to install atlas the CPU get blocked. From what I know the gcc installed is 4.4 and if I want to install 4.5 I get a similar problem. -- Ticket URL: <https://trac.macports.org/ticket/28757> MacPorts <http://www.macports.org/> Ports system for Mac OS

Atlas takes a very long time (hours) to compile. While MacPorts is doing so, it will use as much of your CPU as possible. Wait for it to finish. -- Ticket URL: <https://trac.macports.org/ticket/28757#comment:2> MacPorts <http://www.macports.org/> Ports system for Mac OS

I did not expect to have to wait such a long time with a new computer. There was no feedback on screen for more than two hours. Is there a way to make the console output more verbose, in order to know if it really does something? -- Ticket URL: <https://trac.macports.org/ticket/28757#comment:3> MacPorts <http://www.macports.org/> Ports system for Mac OS

Use the -v flag for verbose output. -- Ticket URL: <https://trac.macports.org/ticket/28757#comment:5> MacPorts <http://www.macports.org/> Ports system for Mac OS

Much of the speed of your new computer comes from it having multiple processor cores. For most ports, this helps them build faster. MacPorts starts multiple make jobs -- the number of jobs is the number of virtual cores, or the number of GB of RAM, whichever is fewer. You have 4 physical cores hyperthreaded to 8 virtual cores, and 8 GB of RAM, so MacPorts will start 8 make jobs -- for ports that support it. Unfortunately the atlas port was found to not build correctly with parallel building, so parallel building was turned off for atlas, so it will not benefit from all these cores you have available. You mentioned gcc45 as well. That is also a large port that will take time to build. Fortunately parallel building works fine for gcc45, and yet, not all of a software's build tasks can be done in parallel, so not all 8 virtual cores will be busy all of the time.

As in: `sudo port -v install atlas` -- Ticket URL: <https://trac.macports.org/ticket/28757#comment:6> MacPorts <http://www.macports.org/> Ports system for Mac OS
