I am running Gentoo on several dual-CPU machines, and even one quad-CPU |

machine with no troubles at all. |

They came from the defaults. Unless you set -autoaddcvs, etc in your |

You would probably get a speed boost going with -j5 rather than -j3, but |

I would bench it myself before trusting anything from an external |

source. |
