Greetings, Any reason that cmake's own VS project generation doesn't make use of /MP <https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/bb385193.aspx> to make use of multiple cores? I added it manually, and cmake build times go through the floor. That option has been present since VS 2008.

" The downside is that the IDE will still perform target level parallelism along with object level parallelism which can lead to excessive parallelism grinding your machine and GUI to a halt. It has also been known to randomly create bad object files. However, the speed up is significant so it is usually worth the extra trouble it causes."
