+Subject: [PATCH 8/8] max python process compile count for hsaco files
+
+use MAX_JOBS environment variable to
+limit the amount python processes to
+build and compress hsaco files.
+
+Note that this will require that aotriton uses
+ninja as a builder because cmakes add_custom_command
+supports only Ninja for setting the process count.
+
+This solves out of memory build problem in cases where
+computer has low amount of memory compared to amount
+of CPUs available.
