SubjectRe: 2.1.120-pre3 on IBM netfinity 7000 - impressive
In article <19980904181310.W26420@suse.de> you write:

With kernel 2.0.x and kernels before 2.1.117 256 MB RAM were sufficient
for "make -j". I think this is very strange and I wonder what caused
this?

I have a dual P-200 MMX with "only" 256 MB RAM. I'm unable to compile
2.1.1[7-9] with more than 6 concurrent tasks (make --jobs=6).
