#910: --make should have a -j flag for parallel building -------------------------------------+------------------------------------ Reporter: igloo | Owner: Type: feature request | Status: patch Priority: normal | Milestone: _|_ Component: Compiler | Version: 6.4.2 Resolution: | Keywords: Operating System: Unknown/Multiple | Architecture: Unknown/Multiple Type of failure: None/Unknown | Difficulty: Unknown Test Case: N/A | Blocked By: 8184 Blocking: | Related Tickets: -------------------------------------+------------------------------------ Comment (by parcs): Ryan: Thanks for testing. Most of the time each thread will be either blocked on an MVar or compiling (or figuring out what to block on next), so I'm not sure where the excessive system time is coming from but I assume it's either from the RTS or the IO manager. I haven't tested `cabal` with my branch but I don't think my changes are causing the errors you're experiencing. I'm willing to bet that it's due to recent changes pushed to master. (Or maybe you forgot to do `git submodule update` after checking out my branch?) ---- akio: #8209 is most likely what's being triggered, although I'm not positive. -- Ticket URL: http://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/910#comment:43 GHC http://www.haskell.org/ghc/ The Glasgow Haskell Compiler
