Looks good. You should just set version to 0.10 and use yesterday's
release. You can pull the corresponding docker image from
https://hub.docker.com/r/kasproject/, and there should be a pip package
as well soon.

Does it still make a difference to set BB_NUMBER_THREADS and
PARALLEL_MAKE? I'm seeing full CPU usage without it as well. I'm always
looking for reasonable defaults we can set (?=) from kas automatically.
BB_DISKMON_DIRS should likely be included, I was adding it as well already.
