I have two computers networked via Firewire: an iMac G4 800, and a

PowerMac serving essentially just as extra processing power. Both
are running OS X 10.4.6 with identical Xcode/compiler installs. I
have "Share this computer for building" turned on on the PowerMac,
and Distribute builds turned on on the iMac. The PowerMac shows up
fine on the iMac, and when I compile on the iMac, the compilation
is properly distributed to the Powermac. However, for some reason,
while this is happening the iMac doesn't contribute to the
compilation! Watching top on both machines, I can see the cc1obj
(or whatever it is called) process appear on the powermac and take
over much of the CPU (not to mention the RAM, as the Powermac is a
bit RAM starved) but the iMac just sits there idle. This is the
case even if Xcode is trying to compile numerous files, so it's not
just a case of trying to only compile a single file and that one
having been sent to the Powermac. What am I doing wrong? How can I
get both of my computers to work on the compilation? If it helps,
the main source I have been using to test this is the Fire
subversion builds (http://fire.sourceforge.net/development/
developer.php) Thanks.
Have you verified that the iMac is really idle? It will be busy --
potentially very busy -- precompiling the sources that are
subsequently compiled on the power mac.
I suspect there is a scheduling issue here and will look into it,
though.
