Thanks. I'd say this is a subtle bug in Make that should be solved in some better way. There's no relation whatsoever between the maximum length of a pipe and the maximum number of parallel jobs that can be run on a system, except an implementation detail of the GNU Make jobserver. OTOH, I can easily imagine a system with more than 4K cores, where such a limitation will really hurt. _______________________________________________ Bug-make mailing list Bug-make@gnu.org https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/bug-make
