yeah, don't underestimate the usefulness of 'make -j' - multicore
Note: trying this (without specifying a number) in a project like busybox, without ulimits, is a good way to fork-bomb yourself.
yep, 'make -j N' where N ~= the number of cpus/cores you want to use.
In fact, against all common sense I have this in my .profile: export MAKEFLAGS=j$(getconf _NPROCESSORS_ONLN || echo 1)
