Under the newest portage with x86~, if I run `emerge -vuD world'

Shouldn't there be more jobs running?

What is the first job?
Assuming that the system is set up to run parallel jobs, you have 71
updates. That's quite a lot. Maybe the first one is some really basic
package in @system upon which the other 70 depend (directly or
indirectly). Portage must complete the first fully in that case, then
proceed.
Or, that first job is portage itself. It makes sense that portage
updates should be done in isolation.
Now 38 are installed and it has never shown more than 1 running.
Appears to be doing them all one by one.
I'm not sure what you mean about system being setup for parallel jobs.
Isn't the new default emerge to run that way? Isn't that why we now
have this line about jobs and load that completely removes the old -v
ouput?
This is a brand new install, and I've changed very little. I've done
nothing consciously to effect how many jobs are to be run.
If its only going to do the jobs one by one, then why cover the -v
output?
I'd sooner disable this new behavior but it appears there is no across
the board way to do that. Maybe a function like:
emg () { emerge --quite-build=n $@; }
Would have that effect. I can't see where it would be losing anything
since emerge is doing 1 job at a time anyway. By the way, are these
heavy or unusual loads:
1.10 1.17 1.14
Its an i7 processor but gentoo is running as vbox guest.
If you are emerging packages one at a time, look at my sig. I'm
thinking you are expecting to see the configure, gcc and install info
like it used to be by default. The new default doesn't show that. If
you want the old way, see my sig for the option to put in make.conf.
If I am wrong on what you are expecting, ignore me. Lots of people do
anyway. lol

Miss the compile output? Hint:
