Something like this can help
ALLOW_MAKE_JOBS_PACKAGES="pkg py* cmake openjdk* openjdk8 phantomjs gcc6 
gcc7 gcc* webkit2-* webkit-* llvm39 llvm60 llvm* rust iridium-browser 
chromium"

But also can hurt if you run in to parallel build of multiple parallel 
packages (for example iridium with chromium at the same time)
