[use the 2.4 patch, or vanilla > 2.5.3-pre4 which has J2.] Ok. After some massive rebooting: -J2 is worser. starting XFree(+gnome) when three gcc's are running take long (> half a minute?). With -J5 X start nearly normal (mostly file access time anyway?) Dragging windows arround is nearly equal. Although with -J2 i sometimes noticed a really big latency when starting vim or man ... Oh. btw. The -J5 was tested with 2.4.18-pre7; the rest was with vanilla-2.4.17 - I hope this doesn't make a performance difference for this tests ... > Ingo k33p h4ck1n6 Ren? -- Ren?
