When I call jade with multiple instances specified at the command 
line, it does the same as  nsgmls: 
All sources are concatenated to a single file before they are 
being processsed. 
The -B switch gets nsgmls to parse every specified file 
independently of the others as a single instance. 
Jade doesn't seem to know of this switch although in Jame's 
documentation (Using Jade) it is said:
'Jade supports the following options in addition to the normal SP
options: '....
Although our current solution (the batchfile) is working, I think 
that a batch mode in Jade is desirable and could possibly help 
to cut down on processing time.
