- <para>When run, ninja normally runs a maximum number of processes
- in parallel. By default this is the number of cores on the system
- plus two. In some cases this can overheat a CPU or run a system out
- of memory. If run from the command line, passing a -jN parameter
- will limit the number of parallel processes, but some packages
- embed the execution of ninja and do not pass a -j parameter.</para>
-
- <para>Using the <emphasis>optional</emphasis> procedure below allows a user to
- limit the number of parallel processes via an environment variable,
- NINJAJOBS. <command>For example</command>, setting:
-
- <!--Using <command> here to make the output bold. We really don't want
- users setting this now and experience shows that many users blindly
- copy/paste anything in a box. -->
-
- <screen>export NINJAJOBS=4</screen>
