That's great for super large builds, but the point of this is to deal with "I have one file I want to compile which is taking 30 seconds to compile, and I only have like three files to compile, so it would be awesome if I could use all of the cores on my laptop to do this compile and get it down to 10 seconds or something".


This, parti ularly for template heavy C++.

Older versions of Stan on GCC 4.8 would take 60+ seconds to compile a single C++ file.


I write template heavy code. I’ve recently refactored template instantiation across many object files. It’s faster, but a lot of work. It’d be great if I didn’t have to.
