// Many build systems attempt to invoke as many linker processes as there
// are cores, based on the assumption that the linker is single-threaded.
// However, since mold is multi-threaded, such build systems' behavior is
// not beneficial and just increases the overall peak memory usage.
// On machines with limited memory, this could lead to an out-of-memory
// error.
//
// This file implements a feature that limits the number of concurrent
// mold processes to just 1 for each user. It is intended to be used as
// `MOLD_JOBS=1 ninja` or `MOLD_JOBS=1 make -j$(nproc)`.
