I want to make sure that while compiling as root nothing will break down inside the machine.
I want to compile software on a Xeon SERVER. The basic issue is that there is a recommendation to not compile it as a root user.
I have compiled software as a root user more then once and I am not sure why would there is a need to run it as non-root user?
I have taken a look at the /proc/ FS but I do not see anything that can harm anything yet.
From my aspect it's just background of electricity noise.
I will be happy to hear from experience of others about it.
Thanks, Eliezer
