Description-en: pump mode for distcc a distributed compiler client and server
distcc is a program to distribute compilation of C or C++ code across
several machines on a network. distcc should always generate the same
results as a local compile, is simple to install and use, and is often
significantly faster than a local compile. distcc does not require all
machines to share a filesystem, have synchronized clocks, or to have
the same libraries or header files installed.
.
this package contains the necessary additions for distcc's "pump" mode,
which improves on plain distcc by distributing not only compilation but
also preprocessing to distcc servers.
If you have more than 10 CPUs involved in your distcc setup, you should
consider using this package on your distcc client machine.
