I have an AMD 64x2 with MAKEOPTS set to -j3. |

I have noticed that some compiles (glibc for example) will use the |
| 4 |
system to the fullest. top reports %CPU near 0%. Other compiles, such |
| 5 |
as openoffice seem to use only half as much cpu time. For this top |
| 6 |
reported consistently near 50%. |

So I'm wondering if the openoffice compile used only one of the amd |
| 9 |
cores. Do some of the emerges ignore the MAKEOPTS setting? Or is this |
| 10 |
an upstream issue with the compile not using threads? |
