I routinely build with -j20 on my development machine, and our mainline branches (2.5, master) seem to be working well with parallel builds. I heard reports early in the new-rtos work about problems with parallel builds, and I heard reports later that it was fixed. What i really want is to add parallel builds to our continuous integration system (the buildbot). If we always build everything with -j2 (or more), these kinds of problems should get caught earlier and be even less of an issue, and we'd have more confidence that things are always working. This means increasinf the number of virtual CPUs for the buildslave VMs, and changing the script that the buildbot uses to do its builds.
