Comment (by jdemeyer):
Answering my own question, it seems that N `DocTestWorkers` are started
with `make -j N`.
But I don't understand the design choice of having '''two levels''' of
multiprocessing: one from the master process to the `DocTestWorker` and
one from the `DocTestWorker` to the `DocTestTask`.
I surely need to think more about this, but I propose a redesign with only
one level of multiprocessing, completely bypassing the `DocTestWorker`
class. This would give the benefits of "serial" processing while still
allowing parallel doctests.
