Testing out new tools AxBuild.exe from CU7 for parallel compiler

A new tool came out in Dynamics AX 2012 R2 CU7 which is AxBuild. This tool really help us to make the compiler run faster. Here is the screenshot of the parallel compilation using AxBuild.exe.

I have tested my self this tools run in virtual machine and it takes 1 hour 5 mins to do the full compilation.

Dynamics AX 2012 R2 client crash when doing full compilation on windows server 2012

I don't know what cause this client crash when we do the full compilation of Dynamics AX 2012 R2 on windows server 2012. I just found only few times I didn't get the AX client crash but 90% it will crash.
Some forum in Microsoft said that Windows Server 2012 only certified for the AOS but not for the client.
I have tried do the full compilation for the Dynamics AX 2012 R2 CU1 and CU6; both have the same client crash.

One of the solution that I found is to run the full compilation using Dynamics AX client running on Windows server 2008 (with or without R2) or Windows 7.
