Parallel builds in 3.1 branch?

Thu May 16 18:31:00 GMT 2002

Bootstrap time on cygwin for 3.2 with java increased by factor of 2-3 
about the time this patch went in. All the increase seems to be in
libjava.
I don't have accurate times, but it used to bootstrap and test overnight
on a 1.5 GHz P4, and now it takes around 24 hours.

Subject: Parallel builds in 3.1 branch?
Dave M. has asked me to consider applying my changes to support parallel
make to the GCC 3.1 branch so that we can speed up the build/test cycle.
I remember that there were some thoughts that my patch slowed things down
in serial. Has anyone measured this?
