Enabling parallel builds seems to fail

(1/2) > >>

fortiernor:
New to Code::Blocks, to work on an open-source project.
I specified "Number of processes for parallel builds" to be 12 (this is a 6-core cpu). Still my cpu monitor indicates little use of processor and a rebuild takes over 9 minutes. Adding -pthread in "Other compiler options" and "Other linker options" does not make any difference. I include a sample build output below.
Rebuilding from command-line with cmake takes 3 minutes and cpu monitor indicates 100% use. With QTCreator a rebuild takes 4 minutes and cpu monitor also indicates 100% use.

Any suggestions?
This is 17.12 on Archlinux 5.0.4-arch1-1-ARCH #1 SMP PREEMPT.

oBFusCATed:
1. I guess this is a cmake project?
2. -pthread is to use pthread in your project it doesn't matter for building
3. Do you have tons of output? Lots of warnings? What happens if you switch to no output?
4. ninja or make? Can you post the start of the log?

fortiernor:
Yes, this is a cmake project. Switching output off (Settings / Compiler settings / Other settings / Compiler logging -> No logging) does not make a difference (> 9 minutes).
This is using make (start of the log includes "Running command: /usr/bin/make [...]").

Since, you are not using the CB Build system; you need to edit the cmake/make build system to change the build settings.

Ok, thank you.
