BuildInParallel
A boolean value that indicates whether project references are built or cleaned in parallel when Multi-Proc MSBuild is used. The default value is true, which means that projects will be built in parallel if the system has multiple cores or processors.
I don't think this means what you think it means -- as far as I understand this means that individual 'projects' will be built in parallel relative to each other only. Thus, if you only have one project, then by default you do not get a parallel build. As far as I know, there is no way in MSBuild to get a single project to build individual source files in parallel. But I would love to be corrected about that. -- chris
