FYI, I didn't add this in the other issue despite wanting it because of
what hvd and gabravier mentioned. The option does not seem to behave
reasonably in current implementations and IMO shouldn't be included because
of that. This description is misleading because the current behavior is to
maximize the number of processes without regard to runtime or anything else
which can lead to hundreds of processes that slow down the entire OS. A
user who is simply looking for a "parallelize this" flag can use
`-P$(getconf NPROCESSORS_ONLN)`.

After making the page 3601 line 123232 change from bug 1801, change:
If the value of maxprocs is non-positive, the
behavior is unspecified.
to:
If the value of maxprocs is zero, the system
heuristically attempts to minimize total runtime by executing multiple
invocations of utility without waiting for previous executions to
complete (e.g., by choosing the number of such invocations based on the
number of available processors).

If the value of maxprocs is negative, the behavior is
unspecified.
