It is just a virtual machine in the cloud, so I do not plan to create a distributed jobs, only parrallel ones on the same host. I would like to use only 1 job / 1 host architecture.
You are right about the CPU capacity, but the strage thing is the following. The CPU utilization is below 1% with the running make command, but file operations (like zipping files) occupies the whole CPU, so it could not be a cloud issue. Thank you for the answer!
