From 12a3989cd7b645f271c8b297a09cb0a4a7d8d2d4 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Moritz Wundke Date: Fri, 7 Mar 2014 20:20:06 +0100 Subject: [PATCH] Speed build time up by 6 using multiple jobs Adding aggresive build mode that spawns num_core+1 jobs. This speeds up build time by 6. On my 8 core machine I'm down from 6m:16s to 1m:34s. --- SConstruct | 7 +++++++ 1 file changed, 7 insertions(+) diff --git a/SConstruct b/SConstruct index ed65f2b89fe..1b4ee5ab96d 100644 --- a/SConstruct +++ b/SConstruct @@ -6,6 +6,13 @@ import os.path import glob import sys import methods +import multiprocessing + +# Enable aggresive compile mode if building on amulti core box +if ARGUMENTS.get('spawn_jobs', 'yes') == 'yes': + NUM_JOBS = multiprocessing.cpu_count() + if NUM_JOBS > 1: + SetOption('num_jobs', multiprocessing.cpu_count()+1) methods.update_version()
