Thus I hardly do so, but use the CG-documented methods:
Hours?
Really?
Perhaps 'an hour' if you were using some very, very old CPU - but even
using a single CPU on an 'old' i5 Intel system a full make doc for me
took less than 50 mins. That last time it took longer than an hour was
when I had an old (8+ years ago) iMac running make doc in a linux VM.

time make doc -j5 CPU_COUNT=5
->
real 77m53,168s
user 204m51,501s
sys 28m57,342s
Ok, hours was not exactly correct, but significant more than one hour

I don't mean to flog this dead horse, but I was curious. I did a make
doc with one cpu on my laptop (it has an i7 7700HQ CPU - circa 2017) and
while I don't have the exact numbers to hand, as I am currently at work,
it was something like real: 45m user:55m (cannot recall sys values), my
desktop before that was from 2013 (i5 something) and I was getting sub
hour make doc times even then but using 3 CPUs.
So you having those timings while using a -j5 option ... wow!
I am obviously inhabiting some technological bubble that I wasn't aware
I was in.
:D
