Thanks for the responses. I guess you've convinced me that setting -j as a
function of cores/hyperthreading is probably a bad idea.
Question: the gnu make man page and the info writeup are not clear on the
effect of MAKEFLAGS. There's a lot of chatter about sub-makes, but it is not
clear that
env MAKEFLAGS='-j 4' make
is equivalent to
make -j 4
If anyone knows definitively, plz let me know. Otherwise, I'll get the
answer by experiment.
But if the above equivalence holds, then I agree that there's no need to
modify the slackbuild scripts.
