    autoninja: don't set -l. · 0db62fcf
    Yoshisato Yanagisawa authored
    autoninja automatically sets -l <num_cores>.  -l option makes ninja
    not invoke a new command if current CPU load average is above -l.
    
    However, as far as I investigated, -l <num_cores> make the build
    much slower than without -l especially on Linux & OSX machines with
    small numbers of cores.  I should say -l decreases the build
    performance.  When I build Chromium with Goma with the same -j with
    autoninja without -l, the load average goes more than the number of
    cores while keeping the machine working as usual.
    Also, ninja can invoke commands until the spike of command invocation
    is reflected to load average, -l might not mitigate for a machine
    to get stuck by too high load.
    
    Note that from what I understand from the implementation, Windows
    ninja's posix-compatible load average is always less than num_cores.
    i.e. -l <num_cores> won't limit the process invocation.

    Let me make autoninja not set -l and bring better build performance
    on machines with small number of cores.
