Is there a way to make llvm use multithreading during compilation.

I have set makeflags=-j8 but llvm ignores that. Any ideas?

I don't have experience with llvm but i think that what you say does not make sense: the -j option has nothing to do with llvm, it is used by make and It's make that parallelize the building proces... so what are you actually trying to do? How and where did you set the makeflags variable? What is the actual command you used? Why do you say the parallelization does not work?

Please, take your time to read the following articles:

Well, I tried to compile rust and it was using only one thread. It took me a long time to compile it.

Why don't you use the official package available in [community]? https://www.archlinux.org/packages/comm … 6_64/rust/

I wanted to check out servo-git and it asks for latest rust. I guess I'll just skip on this affair.
