Or are there any environment variables, etc.. that can can be used to take advantage of the multiple cores?

You just add "-j n" or "-jn" to the "make" command in the SlackBuild. For now, that requires editing the SlackBuild manually.

Code:

export MAKEFLAGS=-j8

I put that into /etc/sbopkg/sbopkg.conf

I use this in my /etc/sbopkg/sbopkg.conf:

Code:

CORES=`nproc`
JOBS=`echo "$CORES + 1" | bc`
export MAKEFLAGS="-j${JOBS}"

You may need to override this with certain Slackbuilds:

Code:

$ cat /var/lib/sbopkg/queues/avr-libc.sqf
@avr-gcc
avr-libc | MAKEFLAGS='-j1'

Can also use,
JOBS=`expr $CORES + 1`

Code:

man expr

expr - evaluate expressions
