Ant isn't doing too many things that could take advantage of multiple processors - it doesn't compile itself but uses your JDK's javac (you know that 8-) which won't take advantage of multiple processors for example. If there are things in your build process that can be done in parallel, you can use Ant's <parallel> task (Ant >= 1.4) and run them in parallel. This should take advantage of multiple processors if your JVM uses native threads. If you put <javac> inside <parallel>, make sure you fork new processes though as Sun's javac code doesn't seem to be thread-safe.
