Just curious, which packages take a lot of time? And how much is
"quite some time"?  In my experience the modules I use build and
install in less than 30 seconds.

I agree that this would be a nice yet modest improvement.  I'm not
sure if it's as simple as "make -j" in the appropriate scripts or not,
but since you have some interest in this, perhaps you would be willing
to look at what it would take to implement it.

Best wishes,
Mike
