Interesting. So you tried both, and in both cases you are unable to get buildtool to compile multiple files in parallel?
No, I only tried the parallel on the most recent one (straight from sourceforge). Btool seems to think it is doing the right thing:
btool -j 2 ...
##### Target : compile ##### compile the source to .o --- compile / cc cc : compile with 2 threads in parallel cc : compile of build/obj/arc-context.o required by source: src/arc-context.cpp ============ cmd ============
but task manager shows it never breaks 50%, with idle always >=50%. Near as I can tell it is only ever trying to compile one thing at a time. Strange, the vast majority of the dll's are the same (except possibly different versions). The newer one has pthreadGC2.dll whereas the older has libpthread-2.dll.
Some sort of threads is working in this mingw because when I break in inkscape itself gdb sees multiple threads.
