My testing showed that distcc doesn't seem to scale beyond about 8-10 |
| 13 |
hosts. (Hosts, not CPUs.) Since the originator has to do all the cpp |
| 14 |
processing and all the linking, the other hosts start standing around |
| 15 |
idle when the originator reaches 100% CPU. |

Am I wrong? Am I doing something wrong? I can get more CPUs... (-: |
