GNU make CPU utilization in cloud environments

[Tamás Fülöp]

Hi everyone,

I am experiencing problems with the GNU make 3.81 in Amazon-like cloud environment. The "make.exe" does not utilizes the virtual CPUs, the utilization sits around 1% and that makes the building process really slow.

I have made the tests in the following environment:

OS: 

Windows 7 x64 Enterprise Edition SP1

System:

Processor: QEMO Virtual CPU version (cpu64-rhel6) 2.80 GHz

RAM: 8GB

Is there anyone, who experiences the same issue in cloud computing?

Thank you in advance!

Best regards,

Tamas Fulop
