MSBuild as well, thus newer VisualStudio as MSBuild is the commandline 
backend to VisualStudio builds nowadays.

BuildInParallel
        
A boolean value that indicates whether project references are built or 
cleaned in parallel when Multi-Proc MSBuild is used. The default value 
is true, which means that projects will be built in parallel if the 
system has multiple cores or processors.

QtCreator uses an nmake drop in replacement for nmake makefiles  that is 
calld jom.  It does the same thing to speed up older builds for 
microsoft C++ builds.
