    73 You should probably also configure the BB_NUMBER_THREADS, PARALLEL_MAKE, and ASSUME_PROVIDED specifically for your environment. BB_NUMBER_THREADS defines the maximum number of tasks that bitbake can run simultaneously while PARALLEL_MAKE defines the number of threads used by make to parallelize the build process. Finally, ASSUME_PROVIDED defines packages available on the host system which are used by OE so they don't need to be built within the OE environment. If you don't recognize any of the package names you should consider commenting out that part of the config file so OE builds everything. 
     73In addition, you should configure the BB_NUMBER_THREADS, PARALLEL_MAKE, and ASSUME_PROVIDED variables specifically for your environment. BB_NUMBER_THREADS defines the maximum number of tasks that bitbake can run simultaneously while PARALLEL_MAKE defines the number of threads used by make to parallelize the build process. These should usually be set relative to the number of CPUs available on your system.
