Subject: Re:  Borland 3.1 make and djgpp


 	I have both Borland's make utility that came with
	Borland 3.1 and Turbo C's make that came with 1.01.
	When I use the Turbo C make everything works fine
	(although compiling time is about double using
	gcc vice tcc/bcc).  However when I use the newer make
	gcc starts to compile than seems to freeze altogether.
	If I catch it soon enough Ctrl-C will stop the process
	otherwise I have to reboot.  I also noticed that
	when using the older make I get a 400+Kbytes available message
	before every compilation step, and when I use the newer one 
	I get 4+Mbytes available.

 	Thanks, 

	-Joe

When I first started using djgpp, I used Borland's make utility from
BCC 3.1.  However, compiles were extremely slow.  I then started using
Dmake, and under it, compiles were much quicker (like twice as fast).
One thing to make sure (with any make utility), is that you have loads
of conventional memory free; this can drastically change your compile
times.
