Log Message:
-----------
By default use -j8 parallel build option rather than -j4.  It doesn't
seem to slow anything down to have all those tasks contending for my
two processors (and I think that would also pertain to the single
processor case), and there may be an advantage because if some process
is waiting for i/o, others can use the cpu(s).  In any case, with -j8,
the "top" application shows %wa almost always at 0 per cent, i.e., the
cpu's are kept busy with no pauses waiting for i/o to finish.  That is
the ideal result.
