Just out of curiosity I just started building the Linux kernel to see what my system does, but the CPU isn’t going over 10% load and is hovering around 40 degrees. I just ran make without any parameters, is there a way to get it to use more than a single cpu core at a time?

make -j$(nproc)99% CPU utilization at 56 degrees.
Such an understatement for 56C 😒.
I use a DeepCool AK620 CPU cooler.

Oh, good, a sane person that uses air cooling.
I have a BeQuiet one on my desktop… can’t remember the model though 😁.
my laptop is at 56°C idle, then again it is summer here
edit: the moment i went to check it is now at 47°C with the browser open. maybe it was reporting the wrong temperature or it’s just cooler today
