Right.

Using a bit of parallelism shouldn't harm (we put a heavier load on them, but for a shorter time), so using -j2 or -j3 seems OK to me, but I wouldn't go higher to remain gentle with Travis CI.

Note: I'm writting this without having a real idea of what consequence
of -jN have on their infrastructure, take my writing as wild guess, not
as real arguments.
