And for stretch, there's "dpkg-buildpackage -Jauto" (not to be confused with -jauto, which is evil).

-jauto replaces auto with the number of processors.

Why is that evil?

What does -Jauto do?

"dpkg-buildpackage -J..." sets DEB_BUILD_OPTIONS=parallel=N.

"dpkg-buildpackage -j..." sets DEB_BUILD_OPTIONS=parallel=N and puts -jN into MAKEFLAGS; the latter imposes parallelism on packages that weren't designed for it.
