Ok but, what's the byte size of 10MLoc, and how many process executions per build - since these were actually the metrics used. My experience is that lines of code don't actually take up that much space.

Depends largely on how the code is structured with C++.

There's the number of compilation units within a lib vs overall. Typically you can parallelize within a module, but not externally unless you have some smarts.

Edit: I use module in this sense as a producible result, not the future language concept of modules.
