If you want to increase the number of processes running tasks to, say, 5 (by default, it is 3), pass the following:
npx nx build myapp --parallel=5
You can also set parallel based on the percentage of the number of logical CPUs.
npx nx build myapp --parallel=50%
Note, you can also change the default in nx.json
, like this:
{ "parallel": 5}
{ "tasksRunnerOptions": { "default": { "runner": "nx/tasks-runners/default", "options": { "parallel": 5 } } }}
