[Boost.Build] Multi-Threaded Build to Leverage Multiple Cores
Hi Everyone, Is there already an option for bjam to leverage multi-core systems? I noticed that it only uses one processor in a sequential fashion. In make, there's a '-j' option to define the number of jobs to be spawned. Insights would be most appreciated. Have a great day! -- Dean Michael C.

Okay, this is my bad... I didn't find this information in the docs though, but I may be looking at the wrong docs. I tried this, and it seems that (on Windows) it doesn't make too much difference on a dual core system. It might be a hardware spec problem but I will investigate further.
