For the last few kernel updates, the build process does not run on all availiable core.
Since this takes obviously much, much more time, I wondered if there is a technical reason, not to use on all the cores any more.
I am a noob, but I wonder, if "-j <no. of cores - 1>" in $MAKEFLAGS and "-O3" in $CFLAGS could speed up building the kernel.
Cheers,
