Re: GMAKE 3.81 vs GMAKE 4.2

[nikhil jain]

Do you mean to not use -j ?

That means a single rule execution at a time. It takes 2 hours to build.
With -j4 it takes 1 hour.

I have -j kind of unlimited. So it usually takes around just 5 minutes to
build. Less than that sometimes.

What exactly is the bug ? And what is the fix in 4.2 ?

Thanks
Nikhil

Need help.
