BB_HASHSERVE_UPSTREAM = "hashserv.yocto.io:8687"
+ :term:`BB_HASHSERVE_MAX_PARALLEL`
+ Specifies the maximum number of queries to the hash equivalence server
+ that can be performed simultaneously. This can be useful to speed up the
+ initial queries to the server when bitbake is preparing to execute tasks,
+ especially if the I/O delay communicating with the server is the
+ bottleneck. Note that this setting is not helpful if :term:`BB_HASHSERVE`
+ is ``auto`` and :term:`BB_HASHSERVE_UPSTREAM` is not set as the I/O delay
+ in communicating with the local hash equivalence server is not typically
+ the limiting factor
+
+ Example usage::
+
+ BB_HASHSERVE_MAX_PARALLEL = "10"
