Let me try to understand this correctly?

You're building the kernel with

make -j6

but in htop you're seeing a single core at 100% and the rest are idle?
Yes, no?

What exact steps are you doing to build the kernel? Type them here
please so that I can do them exactly on my system too.

Also, please send a full dmesg from your system, private message is fine
too.

Thanks.
