The algorithm you describe is a feature of your makefile(s) rather than make.
Make doesn't really know about the traditional three phases of a large C
project that you describe. It's just as happy driving an assembler, preparing

Does it matter to get the accounting for the processor cores right?

I guess that there are some software development challenges around

Likewise the icecream project's icecc:

Last time I looked at distcc, it still ran the c++ preprocessor on the main
machine (to eliminate the risk of different machines having different
configurations), and then sent the preprocessed files to the various machines
at its disposal. This, in my experience, still does a huge portion of t
Without wanting to turn this into a commercial/advert you might want to
consider trying the Electric Cloud Huddle beta since it works with multiple
machines in a convenient way and deals with the problems of getting correct
parallel builds. It is also free for now at least.
Sorry for that :)
