With `make-kpkg` I see for 5 minutes the same effect like when I omit the `-j` option. I make the 100 % usage experience with -Computer- Processor : 8x Intel(R) Core(TM) i7-3632QM CPU @ 2.20GHz Memory : 16291MB (1409MB used) Operating System : Ubuntu 14.04.1 LTS -SCSI Disks- ATA ST1000LM014-1EJ1 experienced with make-kpkg 12.036+nmu3 on Ubuntu 14.04.1.
