Bjørn Forsman dbe4c043d7 install-multi-user: reduce max-jobs from 32 to 1
Having max-jobs = 32 ($NIX_USER_COUNT is hardcoded to that value) may
severely overload the machine. The nix.conf(5) manual page says max-jobs
defaults to 1, so let's use that value.

NOTE: Both max-jobs and cores are now being set to their default value,
so they can be removed alltogether.

Nix, the purely functional package manager

Nix is a new take on package management that is fairly unique. Because of its purity aspects, a lot of issues found in traditional package managers don't appear with Nix.

To find out more about the tool, usage and installation instructions, please read the manual, which is available on the Nix website at http://nixos.org/nix/manual.
