[...]happens since all builds happen in the same cgroup which is limited to 4915
tasks by systemd's per-service defaults. If it reaches a total of
4915 tasks (processes and threads) calls like fork(), clone(),
pthread_create() will fail.
Raise the limit to 64000 processes, which is similar to the NPROC rlimit that would be used if the cgroup didn't impose a task limit at all.
This is a short term fix proposed by Simon McVittie, while the long term
solution should place each bs_worker instance in its own systemd-managed
cgroup. The default task limit of 4915 might then be adequate.
