On Linux, and any other systems that provide a /proc/loadavg with similar
syntax, the -l/--load-average option will consult that file to
determine how many jobs are at any given instant, and compare that
value to the load value requested. This allows usage such as "-j -lN" for
N-processor systems without fear of overload.

many CPUs are busy at that moment and compare that value to the load value
requested. This allows usage such as "-j -lN" for N-processor systems
without fear of overload during initial startup.
