Well, you can't if you run make -j60 outside of a build farm... :-)

Or when the build farm's scheduler goes down.

I've nuked my own system several times in the past doing that. Then you do have to wait the 15-30 minutes it takes to build Qt.

Besides, there *is* something you can do, even in those cases:

Some of us have to build on windows :)  Best I can really get on my 8 core hyperthreaded system is 32 at a time..  :)  But unfortunately devenv build libraries in parallel, not files inside the library.. And QtWebkit takes 30 mins no matter what I do :( And now QtDelcaritive :(

But I love that comic strip!
