build-parallelism

Guide for optimizing MSBuild build parallelism and multi-project scheduling. Only activate in MSBuild/.NET build context. USE FOR: builds not utilizing all CPU cores, speeding up multi-project solutions, evaluating graph build mode (/graph), build time not improving with -m flag, understanding project dependency topology. Note: /maxcpucount default is 1 (sequential) — always use -m for parallel builds. Covers /maxcpucount, graph build for better scheduling and isolation, BuildInParallel on MSBuild task, reducing unnecessary ProjectReferences, solution filters (.slnf) for building subsets. DO NOT USE FOR: single-project builds, incremental build issues (use incremental-build), compilation slowness within a project (use build-perf-diagnostics), non-MSBuild build systems. INVOKES: dotnet build -m, dotnet build /graph, binlog analysis.
