Sort of.  If you look at the plots at
<http://hubble.gforge.inria.fr/parallel-builds.html>, you’ll see that
the total number of packages in the ‘-j32’ curve is slightly lower than
that of ‘-j2’.  It’s less than 10% off the top of my head, but I haven’t
looked in detail.

That’s the idea: <http://hubble.gforge.inria.fr/hubble.html#sec-2_4>.
