n is the default for quiet-build if --jobs is set to 1, or unspecified. |

But using a higher value will give you faster updates. The MAKEOPTS |
| 11 |
setting has no effect during the preparation and installation stages of |
| 12 |
an ebuild, and with --jobs=1 that means your CPU spends a lot of time |
| 13 |
idling. |
