maemo.org - Talk - distcc+ccache on the n900 (make -j4)

Hello all,

I just wrote a distcc-howto on the wiki to speed up compiling big jobs on the n900. I am interested in constructive comments and testing by others.

Cheers,

Distributed Remote-Distributed-Compile from the n900 to Native Armel Targets

Quote:

For those who have tried to compile on the n900, you might notice it is a bit slow since an ARM CPU is great for general use, but not---for example---compiling a kernel. It, however, often useful to compile natively on the architecture you will be using. Originally this process was used to configure a distcc farm for the mini2440 ARM(el) board---and this is directly applicable to the n900 platform---and it works on my phone!
