Details:

In our Makefile, there is a set of parallelizable jobs that use a lot of
memory.

It would be nice to run as many in parallel as possible without thrashing in
virtual memory.

It would be nice if there were a command-line option to allow one to express
this constraint.

The option might say how much memory the largest job in the set is expected to
require.
