- Kanoj, earlier you had said the wall time looks bad. I don't understand. For the 1-way make, it took 13:28 == 808 seconds, of which 742sec were in user mode (> 90%) ... which is typical of large comp

- 13:28 seconds for a 1 way make is just not an acceptable number. Refer to John's recent mail about AIM7 performance too. j6 is the best, as you can make out from the results. j4 and j8 both do worse

- Question: is this using -j4 MAKE="make -j4" so that it will spawn 4 proccesses for every subdir? I have found that doing this yeilds about 60 compile proccesses on average during the build.

- True. And the other culprit is probably all the locore code (like fast tlb handlers, inital syscall/intr/pagefault code) that executes before the timers are switched from user to kernel/system. Kano

- Ulf's lmbench results for a UP Origin kernel are significantly below what I achieve on my R5000 Indy. That's suspicious. I don't think all of the difference can be explained by 32-bit vs. 64-bit code
