I thought I'd mention this to any macerlangers out there. Discovered
this testing some concurrency code, and saw the following in the
erlang Portfile:
configure.args --prefix=${destroot}${prefix} \
--enable-threads \
--enable-kernel-poll \
--enable-hipe \
--disable-smp-support
There is an smp variant, though, which you can use to enable smp
support. I wonder if we should make this the default, no? Are there
some known bugs in the smp code? (I know /my/ code runs 2wice as fast
with it on... :)
