What effect does this checkbox have on the project files (.project 
and .cproject), i.e. how is this information stored in them ?
Also, does "optimal" mean it will run "make -j" or will eclipse try to 
determine how many cores there are and then run "make -j X" ?

Also, it would be nice if you could put this in the cmake bug tracker.
