help
|

|
|
Number of jobs make will be allowed to run concurently.
|
|
|
|
Set this higher than the number of processors you have, but not too high.
|
|
|
|
A good rule of thumb is twice the number of processors you have.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Enter 1 (or 0) to have only one job at a time.

config LOAD

prompt "Maximum allowed load"
|

default 0

|

|
help
|
|
|
|
Specifies that no new jobs should be started if there are others jobs
|
|
|
|
running and the load average is at least this value.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Makes sense on SMP machines only.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Enter 0 to have no limit on the load average.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Note: only the integer part of the load is allowed here (you can't enter
|
|
|
|
0.75 for example).

Use gcc's option -pipe to use pipes rather than temp files when building
|
|
|
|
the toolchain.

config CONFIG_SHELL_ASH

prompt "Use 'ash' as CONFIG_SHELL"

default n

|
help
|
|
|
|
Use /bin/ash as the shell used by ./configure scripts.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
./configure scripts make intensive use of calling a sub-shell, and the
|
|
|
|
traditional bash is slow, whereas ash is faster.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Saying 'y' here should be safe enough, but some components may not
|
|
|
|
accept using a shell other than bash (this is most probably true for
|
|
|
|
old versions). If you have trouble, say 'n' here and see if it fixes it.
