+ The mach build system (Python scripts) can be somewhat unreliable: if
+ the build fails and reports an Error, it can still return a status of
+ success, causing a scripted build to try to install (which does not
rerun
+ the build), fail during the preparations for installing, but still exit
+ with a status of success. Also, on occasion it may limit itself to only
+ running one set of jobs - that will make the build take about 3 times
as
+ long as running with four sets of jobs.
