Hello,

I am trying to understand if it is possible to generate make files in 
parallel. The build process I am looking at suffers from a slow make 
file generation. I understand that once the generation is done I can 
call make -j XY to build in parallel; but what I am after is to  to 
generate the make files in parallel. Something like a cmake -j XY. Is 
that possible?

If not, if found http://www.cmake.org/Wiki/CMake_Performance_Tips, is 
there other information I should be aware of?

Thanks.
