We are talking about concurrent processes only.
Of course.
I cannot believe compiling the kernel requires ~700 processes running in parallel.
Hmm, I'm not sure now, maybe it was compiling gcc. I know I saw the number showing at least 750.
When I compile my kernels it does not use more than about 8 processes,
+- 2, neither with Linux, not other systems.
