The latest ebuild does not utilize all processor cores while building, so the building process takes a while. I tried copying the ebuild to my local repository and manually changed the $(makeopts_jobs) variable to a fixed value (my number of processor cores) and still the build uses one processor core only.

I'd have thought https://gitweb.gentoo.org/repo/gentoo.git/commit/?id=be214f59a2387da65ae4665cbe1639a9c3e6bb42 would solve this, but your investigation re changing the actual contents tells us that we need to be passing JOBS= differently. Thank you!

To be fair, given we're now building SpiderMonkey (probably the biggest chunk), this was always going to be a bit slower. Can you try with the latest typo fix?
Trying the ebuild with the latest change. I notice that one core is used while building the bundled spidermonkey. But spidermonkey 78.6 is already installed in that system and it takes about 12-13 minutes to build. I tried building spidermonkey and it seems to use all available processor cores, so I think there must be something wrong with the build procedure of the bundled spidermonkey.

Excellent. Thanks for your patience, both, and fast feedback. It really helps a lot. Give me a shout if I can do anything more!

All seems fine, except the fact that (in both PCs), when I click on exit to exit from the game, it just freezes. From top, I can see the game is stuck (1 cpu core is at 100%) and the only way to exit the game is by killing the process (not gracefully). Other than that, all seems ok. I tried launching the game from a terminal just in case some error or message appears upon clicking on exit, but no luck.
