Is there some environment where make -j without an argument produces good results? I just followed these instructions and was sad to be reminded that here in 2016 Linux still doesn't know what to do when a program eats all the RAM.

From make(1):

If the -j option is given without an argument, make will not limit the number of jobs that can run simultaneously.
