TheForgottenServer

[lucas50]

Hey all,

TFS (rev. 3777) works with multicore processor?

Well, from what I saw, many say that does not work, but I found a "code" that seems to work, give a look and tell me if it works:

#!/bin/bash
# CCache + multicore compilation script by Stian
# For "The Forgotten Server"

# Example:
# # make clean
# # time ./build.sh

# Gives:
# real  3m27.070s
# user  6m4.066s
# sys   0m16.659s

# CCACHE recompile (from scratch):
# # make clean
# # time ./build.sh

# Gives:
# real  0m27.620s
# user  0m43.744s
# sys   0m4.766s

# 1/7 of the original compile time!
# When more you do it, more ccache will cache, default is limited to use 1GB storage

echo "TheForgottenServer build script- seems to speed things up ALOT."
# Enable CCache
if test -x `which ccache`; then
        echo "CCache: OK"
        if [ -f /usr/lib/ccache/bin ]; then
                export PATH=/usr/lib/ccache/bin/:$PATH
                echo "CCache binaries located in /usr/lib/ccache/bin"
        else
                export PATH=/usr/lib/ccache/:$PATH
                echo "CCache binaries located in /usr/lib/ccache"
        fi
else
        echo "CCache: Not installed"
fi

# Get number cores
CORES=`grep processor /proc/cpuinfo | wc -l`
# Set make processes - 1 + number of cores
MAKEOPT=$(($CORES + 1))

echo "Building on $CORES cores, using $MAKEOPT processes"
make -j $MAKEOPT

I think it somehow takes values from config.lua or simply doesn't work/work as default(or need untold to anyone compiler parameter?)

	-- Process
	-- NOTE: daemonize works only on *nix, same as niceLevel, while
	-- defaultPriority works only on Windows.
	-- coresUsed are seperated by comma cores ids used by server process,
	-- default is -1, so it stays untouched (automaticaly assigned by OS).
	daemonize = false
	defaultPriority = "high"
	niceLevel = 5
	serviceThreads = 1
	coresUsed = "-1"
