I don't know if the first half of that statement is strictly true.
It'd be interesting to profile a build on one of the very large boxes
but I think the issue is we only have ~300 objects being built.  It's
hard to run up a load of 32 when you only have that many things to
build.  But multiplying that by the number of boards in a arch or some
cpu or soc combinations is easier to run up the load, except around
the tails.  But, profiling, please!
