It allows parallel compiling by +distributing the compile jobs to several nodes of a compile network running the +icecc daemon. The icecc scheduler routes the jobs and provides status and +statistics information to the icecc monitor. Each compile node can accept one +or more compile jobs depending on the number of processors and the settings of +the daemon. Link jobs and other jobs which cannot be distributed are executed +locally on the node where the compilation is started. +Note that upon installation of the resulting package, all your software +will be compiled by icecream by default. + +For information on how to use icecream in combination with ccache see +http://en.opensuse.org/Icecream#How_to_combine_icecream_with_ccache + +icecc can use librsync, which is also available from slackbuilds.org. |
