Comment:
Yes, I know it's used for testing. Whether or not tests are run in
parallel is
not under your control as the author of the library and its tests. A
tester may
run bjam with -jN and several tests will run simultaneously, and that may
be a
feature of the testing system or simply how the tester configures the test
machine. The ability to exploit all the resources of the testing machines
is
extremely important to reducing our test turnaround time.
