AX 2012 , latest cu7 brings about a major change in the the architecture of AX compilation and build. It uses AXBuild to compile the application faster.
You can find it in the servers bin directory (C:\Program Files\Microsoft Dynamics AX\60\Server\MicrosoftDynamicsAX\bin on my system) One of the parameters is the number of Workers to use, this allows the compiler to use all the cores available in your system instead of 1 the traditional compile uses. But if I understand the documentation correctly AxBuild.exe is even capable itself to decide the number of workers based on the configuration it runs on. So potentially no need to specify them.
AxBuild.exe can accomplish a full compile of all X++ code, into AX p-code, many times faster than the traditional compile that you start from the MorphX client menu. AxBuild.exe is run on the Application Object Server (AOS) tier at a cmd.exe command prompt. This topic explains what AxBuild.exe does and how to use it.
