IIRC, hydra's "big-parallel" machines have 32 cores instead of 2. Should help with ~60 hr build times. Unless this causes timeout/OOm issues

may close: #81081

This is already set for chromium.browser (the real build, chromium is just the wrapper) in browser.nix. AFAIK that should be sufficient (but I never verified if it actually works as expected).
