make -j works pretty darn well in my experience.
Honestly, the #1 programming language for parallelization, in practice, is bash scripting. you can convert any single-threaded program into a background thread with the & on the end, and then start running something else.
Yeah yeah yeah, people wanna be complicated with pthreads or async or other features. But... bash's "background" processing (&) gets a surprising amount of things done in my experience. Just spin up a program 300+ times with a & to make them all process in the background, and you're set.
