Hello, I'm sure most of you are aware of the /MP flag introduced in MSVC9. I know this flag works fine when set through Visual Studio 9, however, I'm not sure if it works when calling cl.exe directly. Since it's just a compiler flag I imagine it does. It would be great to see support for this flag in CMake and/or bjam to help build boost faster when using this particular compiler. Any thoughts on this?
If this is a compiler flag, then can you try full build with cxxflags=-MP and then without and report the timings? If this is a magic way to make builds faster, it can be enabled by default. - Volodya
