If you want to run a parallel make, you can't just give @code{make} the
|
||||
@samp{-j} option, because it won't be passed down to the sub-makes.
|
||||
Instead, edit the generated @file{Makefile} and uncomment the line

@smallexample

# PARALLELMFLAGS = -j 4

@end smallexample

|

You can change the @samp{4} to some other number as appropriate for
|

your system. Instead of changing the @file{Makefile}, you could give
|
||||
this option directly to @code{make} and call it as, for example,
|
||||
@code{make PARALLELMFLAGS=-j4}. If you're building in the source
|
||||
directory, you must use the latter approach since in this case no
|
||||
new @file{Makefile} is generated for you to change.
|
||||
If you want to run a parallel make, simply pass the @samp{-j} option
|

with an appropriate numeric parameter to @code{make}. You need a recent

GNU @code{make} version, though.
