Bug Description
Binary package hint: transcode
using -j without a number limit is a very bad idea. In the case of a transcode build, it means that well over 100 processes all launch and try to compile or whatever at once. Please limit make -j to 2 times the number of CPUs, like the more sane users of -j do.
thanks,
lamont
