Description ephemer0l 2022-01-30 14:15:17 UTC

Every version of stable python while using distcc, when it runs tests it used the MAKEOPTS=-j# not the MAKEOPTS=-l# and can bog down a system.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.emerge python while using distcc with a large MAKEOPTS="j256 -l3" and when running tests it only uses -j#, not -l#
2.
3.
Actual Results:  
high load avg

Expected Results:  
respect local makeopts

I don't think CPython's test runner has a way to control load average.
