[Gambas-user] Faster compiler

Hi,

I have just implemented support for background jobs in the Gambas 
compiler, through a new '-j' option that takes as argument the maximum 
number of background jobs.

It's like an embedded "make" command.

Now, on my four-core Intel CPU, compiling the IDE is about four times 
faster with four backgroud jobs.

I won 0,5 s. Woh oh!

More seriously, I have done that for fun, and I don't know if it could 
help on slower computers.

You will tell me.
