Could b2 default to -jX where X is the number of cores?

This would be unexpected

Why?

AFAIK, other build systems do not build in parallel by default.

Ninja does, I believe.

MSBuild as well, thus newer VisualStudio as MSBuild is the commandline backend to VisualStudio builds nowadays. 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. QtCreator uses an nmake drop in replacement for nmake makefiles that is calld jom. It does the same thing to speed up older builds for microsoft C++ builds. -- Bjørn
