@lupyuen amazing that anyone would ever think otherwise.

g++ needs about 4GB per invocation. So you've got this cool 8 or 16 thread CPU but you can only compile software with `make -j2` ? What a waste of CPU cores.

@hyc @lupyuen C++ is a crime. Just avoid compiling software written in this awful language could work. The web is an unmanageable monster nowadays and just keep fixing things with more metal. Wish one day we can roll back to a sane usage of resources and do more with less

@hyc @lupyuen 4 GB/invocation seems fairly high
