binary serves no purpose (and increases the size). You should
almost certainly say "no" to this right now.

- help
- Build a libbusybox with the complete feature-set, disregarding
- the actually selected config.
-
- Normally, libbusybox will only contain the features which are
- used by busybox itself. If you plan to write a separate
- standalone application which uses libbusybox say 'Y'.
-
- Note: libbusybox is GPL, not LGPL, and exports no stable API that
- might act as a copyright barrier. We can and will modify the
- exported function set between releases (even minor version number
- changes), and happily break out-of-tree features.
-
- Say 'N' if in doubt.

help
- Use libbusybox.so also for busybox itself.
You need to have a working dynamic linker to use this variant.
config LFS
cp, mount, tar, and many others. If you want to access files larger
than 2 Gigabytes, enable this option. Otherwise, leave it set to 'N'.
-config BUILD_AT_ONCE
- bool "Compile all sources at once"
- default n
- help
- Normally each source-file is compiled with one invocation of
- the compiler.
- If you set this option, all sources are compiled at once.
- This gives the compiler more opportunities to optimize which can
- result in smaller and/or faster binaries.
-
- Setting this option will consume alot of memory, e.g. if you
- enable all applets with all features, gcc uses more than 300MB
- RAM during compilation of busybox.
-
- This option is most likely only beneficial for newer compilers
- such as gcc-4.1 and above.
-
- Say 'N' unless you know what you are doing.
