RPi4B and self-hosted buildworld buildkernel times: using more than -j3 is a waste in my tests.

I use a MBin DS as a router with a dual ethernet card in the PCIe slot.

It routes between hy home LAN (1Gb) and my WAN router (80Mb) without
cracking a sweat.

It has PLENTY of extra computrons left to do double-duty as  an AArch64
build-box.
