Facts about Running Builds in Parallel with Team Build

TeamBuild

can build one build definition from a single Team Project at a time.
can build multiple build definitions from different Team Project.

MSBuild

has the capability to use multiple CPUs to build projects in parallel and therefore speed up your builds.
This multiproc feature can be leveraged in your Team Builds.

Thanks Grant for pointing out those facts.

Have you found any recommendations around the number of Build Servers you should have in relation to the number of daily builds?
