What about the make famous -j option?
      -j [jobs], --jobs[=jobs]           Specifies the number of jobs (commands) to run simultaneously.  If
there is  more than one -j option, the last one is effective.  If           the -j option is given without an argument,
make will  not  limit           the number of jobs that can run simultaneously.
