FWIW, I routinely use "make -j6" and "make -j8", and it works OK. So this is either a VM problem, or a problem with the MSYS2 Make port you were using. > The build takes about 36 min, and the installation and packaging another > 13 minutes, for a total of 49 minutes; the build time-limit is one hour. A "make -j8" build normally takes about 4 min (longer if optimizations are disabled). Thanks.
