Description
Summary of change
Speed up unittests by not limitting Make to spawn more processes.
By default, the Make will use as many processes as specified by
-j[N]
parameter. But if there is a parameter-l[N]
parameter given, it does not spawn any more processes, if load average is over N.This greatly limits the effect of parallel build. On Mac OS X, I can see load average as high as 40, when building unittests. This is normal, and the system is still responsive.
