<blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0 0 0 .8ex;border-left:1px #ccc solid;padding-left:1ex;">After following lots of advice from another thread I am finally getting PV 3.6 branch built. But the build is only using 1 processor of 16 available. I have the following in my declarative style ctest file:<br>

<br>
file (WRITE &quot;${CTEST_BINARY_DIRECTORY}/CMakeCache.txt&quot;<br>
&quot;<br>
//Command used to build entire project from the command line.<br>
MAKECOMMAND:STRING=/usr/bin/make -j 16<br>
//Path to a program.<br>
CMAKE_MAKE_PROGRAM:FILEPATH=/usr/bin/make<br>
//Name of generator.<br>
CMAKE_GENERATOR:INTERNAL=Unix Makefiles<br>
//Path to a program.<br>
CVSCOMMAND:FILEPATH=/usr/bin/cvs<br>
//Build type<br>
CMAKE_BUILD_TYPE:STRING=Debug<br>
//Turn on more strict warnings<br>
CMAKE_CXX_FLAGS:STRING=-Wunused -Wformat -Wsign-compare -Wshadow<br>
SITE:STRING=${CTEST_SITE}<br>
BUILDNAME:STRING=${CTEST_BUILD_NAME}<br>
QT_QMAKE_EXECUTABLE:FILEPATH=/Users/Shared/Toolkits/Qt-4.5.1-UBFramework/bin/qmake<br>
CMAKE_BUILD_TYPE:STRING=Debug<br>
BUILD_SHARED_LIBS:BOOL=ON<br>
BUILD_TESTING:BOOL=ON<br>
CMAKE_OSX_ARCHITECTURES:STRING=x86_64<br>
VTK_USE_RPATH:BOOL=ON<br>
VTK_USE_64BIT_IDS:BOOL=ON<br>
VTK_USE_CARBON:BOOL=OFF<br>
VTK_USE_COCOA:BOOL=ON<br>
PARAVIEW_BUILD_PLUGIN_Prism:BOOL=OFF<br>
CMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX:PATH=/Users/Shared/Toolkits/ParaView-3.6-x64<br>
&quot;<br>
)<br>
<br>
and that file is called from a shell script file using the following:<br>
<br>
ctest -S ${PARAVIEW_DASHBOARD}/ParaView36Dashboard.cmake -V<br>
<br>
Looking at the activity meter, there is barely any cpu being used during the build. Looking at the process list only shows a single instance of gcc running at any one time. Thoughts?<br>
<br>
Thanks<br>
