Bug Description

The 2.11 version of the parser add the ability to farm work out to multiple jobs using the -j switch, and defaults to doing parallel compiles.

However in environments that use a scheduler to offline cpus to save power, the parser only looks at the currently online cpus when the parser is starting up. Resulting in the parser using a reduced number of jobs (likely just 1).

The parser should recheck available resources after doing some work to allow for schedules to bring new resources online.
