By default cerbero is using only one core to compile, using "make". To
support parallel builds (make -jX) and make use of all the cores in your
system you can add the following line to your cerbero.cbc config:
allow_parallel_build = True

Note the the iOS universal config is building the whole SDK for 5 different
architectures, so it's going to take time to build 86x5 projects :)
