IMHO, that's completely unrealistic, since my unsermake builds with 
--compile-jobs=5 on clean kdelibs run in 12 minutes compared to your 32 
minutes. There comes a point where the machine simply can't keep up with 
feeding the cluster. While these numbers make cmake look good, my cmake 
builds with -j5 also run in 12 minutes, so in more realistic conditions, 
they're about even.
