I've got that option enabled by default for building FPC 2.7.1 and it
does shave off a few seconds.

I'm also trying to use fpmake for other "hourly build server" tasks,
where I need to do clean compiles of various independent packages first,
then build the test suite that pulls everything together. eg: building
Synapse, FBLib, tiOPF, EpikTimer, fpGUI etc in parallel. Then somehow
wait until they are all done, then build the test suite which uses all
those packages. I still haven't figure this process out yet. If you have
hints or suggestion on this, it would be greatly appreciated [maybe
follow-up in a new message thread in fpc-pascal]
