If the makefile specifies all the dependencies correctly, then it's possible
to do parallel builds. I'm not sure how finegrained the parallelicity is, but
imagine that if one target depends on two other targets that those will be
built in parallel, instead of one after the other. But if there is a
dependency between those two targets that is not specified in the makefile the
build may run fine with -j1 but fail for higher values. -j specifies the
number of parallel instances of make to run.

Duly noted, I just wanted to mention it.
