Let's start from one file. This happens very often when I edit a file
and I hit compile, just to see if the syntax is correct. My point is
that compiling this one file is probably in most setups faster to
compile locally than remotely. Going from there and having a
dual-proc machine I would think that compiling 2 files is still
faster to compile both locally than remotely. But actually exactly 2
files is a pretty rare occurence. After that using the remote machine
will benefit the compile time.
My testing has shown that on a dual processor system, you are better
only using one local CPU for compiles if there are other machines on
the network of similar speed. Xcode is doing enough other stuff locally
to keep the other CPU reasonably busy. Adding a second compile actually
slows down the overall build time.
