George Kalpakas 4c63241b34 fix(ngcc): do not run in parallel mode if there are less than 3 CPU cores (#36626)
Previously, ngcc would run in parallel mode (using the
`ClusterExecutor`) when there were at least 2 CPU cores (and all other
requirements where met). On systems with just 2 CPU cores, this meant
there would only be one worker process (since one CPU core is always
reserved for the master process). In these cases, the tasks would still
be processed serially (on the one worker process), but we would also pay
the overhead of communicating between the master and worker processes.

This commit fixes this by only running in parallel mode if there are
more than 2 CPU cores (i.e. at least 2 worker processes).

Angular Compatibility Compiler (ngcc)

This compiler will convert node_modules compiled with ngc, into node_modules which appear to have been compiled with ngtsc.

This conversion will allow such "legacy" packages to be used by the Ivy rendering engine.

Building

The project is built using Bazel:

yarn bazel build //packages/compiler-cli/ngcc

Unit Testing

The unit tests are built and run using Bazel:

yarn bazel test //packages/compiler-cli/ngcc/test

Integration Testing

There are tests that check the behavior of the overall executable:

yarn bazel test //packages/compiler-cli/ngcc/test:integration
