Also, if you are doing some build(s) that you are not in a hurry for/are less important, you can launch the builds with: --background and they will run at a lower priority.
That reminds me of a story I read, I think in one of Andy Tanenbaum's operating system books. As I recall, he labeled it as "probably apocryphal". It seems that, some decades ago, a mainframe at MIT was to be decommissioned. As the sysadmins were shutting things down, suddenly a student job popped up and started to run. It had been submitted years before, but at such a low priority that it had not been able to run until then.
As I said, of dubious veracity and even more dubious application to the current situation. :-)
