Hi Robert,
On my i7 quad core machine, I've set both values to 6. Setting it to
6 appears to be nearly the same as setting it to 8, I dare say a
marginally faster by a minute. I can build core image console in
around 22 minutes.

i recall someone (richard purdie?) once benchmarked to check the
benefits of increasing parallelism and while it's obvious you'll hit
the wall eventually, it would still be nice for the documentation to
be consistent.
FWIW Robert, I think in the cases like this where the patch is fairly
trivial, I'd recommend just submitting it and getting feedback on it. In
general I've found you've raised some legitimate issues, but the fixes
aren't happening because patches aren't coming in, and things like
documentation consistency on this level is not going to compete with
other issues the developers are munching on.
Just a suggestion,
Scott
