#1465: Boost doesn't honor parallel build options ------------------------------------+--------------------------------------- Reporter: knarf | Owner: Type: enhancement | Status: new Priority: minor | Milestone: Component: EinsteinToolkit thorn | Version: development version Resolution: | Keywords: ------------------------------------+---------------------------------------
Comment (by eschnett):
It turns out that we don't have access to the make flags (-j N) in this configure script, since we have already been called from inside a parallel make. We do have access to the Unix pipes that make uses to coordinate multiple parallel makes, but this is not useful for Boost's configure system.
I would close this issue, stating that we rather build Boost ahead of time (e.g. via Simfactoy3).
