I thought I had it running well... 3 tasks and max 8 builders / task.
It was sitting at 0.0 - 1% swap. Perking right along. Looked away to
another bit of work and it has blyecch'd again.

Rebooted, starting it again. It does seem to start over from where it
crashed, which is good.

I'm not in any way saying that this is a bad tool, just trying to
figure out why it crashes even with all the resources I've given it.

Building math/openblas and devel/llvm90 simultaneously, so it's
obvious what put it over the top!

Sigh... barfed again, but at least this time it marked those as failed
and started on new ports. I guess if I keep repeating the process
it'll get through them all. :D
