[distcc] very slow with many machines

[Stefan Heinrichsen]

Hello,

I try to use distcc in a group of about 40 PCs. All PCs have a P4 2.6
Ghz with 1GB Ram and are connected with 100MBit cards.
I tried different values for -j.. from 70 to 150 but the compilie time
always is the same. Without distcc it is about 10% _faster_.
In the logs of the machines I can see that all hosts are used.

Where could be the problem? Is the network to slow to use so many hosts?
