New description:
I tried using the RBM_NUM_PROCS option (implemented in #23075) with tor-
browser-build. Unfortunately the build continued to use the default 4
cores for some reason.
If I replace the line
{{{
num_procs: '[% GET ENV.RBM_NUM_PROCS ? ENV.RBM_NUM_PROCS : "4" %]'
}}}
with
{{{
num_procs: '[% GET ENV.RBM_NUM_PROCS ? ENV.RBM_NUM_PROCS : "32" %]'
}}}
then it uses 32 cores as the default. So somehow the RBM_NUM_PROCS env var
is not being detected.

Comment:
OK, false alarm. Turns out my problem was that I set env var with my user
account, but then called `sudo make alpha`. The env var is not preserved
when I use `sudo`. Thanks, boklm!
