Try installing "linux-user-chroot".  I'll make this error out earlier
and in a more obvious way.

Yeah...it defaults to using all cores, and thermal management on 
Linux+various hardware is not always great.  If it's a Lenovo laptop I
think that's a known issue...

Something like this should help:

$ chrt --idle 0 taskset 0x1 ostbuild ...

See the manual for both "chrt" and "taskset".  Just doing chrt --idle 0
may be enough, I always use that.  Ok, really I use:
https://github.com/cgwalters/homegit/blob/master/bin/longrun so I always
type:

$ longrun ostbuild ...
