Optimizing yay builds for multicore processors

I tried installing antimicrox from AUR repository with AMD Ryzen 9 7950X3D and the build/compilation time was at first the same with my Intel 11370U 4 core CPU !!!

After doing a little bit of research setting the make flags to: MAKEFLAGS=”–jobs=$(nproc)”

determines the number of processor cores/threads… thus speeding compilation times.
