MSBuild can take full advantage of systems that have multiple processors or multiple-core processors by creating a separate build process for each processor. For example, if a system has four processors, MSBuild creates four build processes.

## Project-to-project references

When the Microsoft Build Engine encounters a project-to-project (P2P) reference during parallel builds for a project, it builds the reference one time only. If two projects have the same P2P reference, the reference isn't rebuilt for each project. Instead, the build engine returns the same P2P reference to both projects that have the dependency. MSBuild also supplies the same P2P reference to future requests in the session for the same target.
