If I do this make I end up around 80-90% in user mode and the > rest in system on a standard 2.4.17 SMP box (configured with too less > swap btw). How much memory does that box have ?

If your machine has one GB of RAM (or more), I expect the gccs to fit mostly into RAM, which would give much better behaviour. regards, Rik -- Shortwave goes a long way: irc.starchat.net #swl http://www.surriel.com/ http://distro.conectiva.com/ - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/ | ||||||||||||
