I don't think you can use a different job server for make, all you can do is have a make rule that launches parallel or something else, but then you lose dependency tracking on the sub-tasks.

Are you running parallel make tasks where each task is also doing something multi-threaded or parallel? Like using make -j 8 won't work for you?

Make does have the -l load average task limiter when but I've never gotten it to work reliably, it always starts way too many jobs at first and chokes for a while before calming down. Often that won't work for me, but maybe it will help you?
