What controls the -j option in a CMake build in Visual Studio Code?

When first importing a CMake project into a fresh Visual Studio Code install with the CMake plugin installed, I notice the default build command is as follows:

/usr/local/bin/cmake --build  --config  --target  -j <#cores> --

I cannot figure out what Visual Studio Code setting controls if the -j parameter is being used, or how to override it.

My questions:

  1. What option or config file controls if this parameter is added?
  2. What is the best way to disable or override this?
