Parallel emerge. Emerge would have to lock its subcomponents in order to allow this. Lots of problems currently don't allow this: * Duplication of efforts of other parallel emerges; * bad interdependence coordination (none). Currently, I have to use "-f" on all of my other emerges, and only have one core one compiling. This gets hard. Also, parallel download to compile; download usually doesn't take much system resources, whereas compile does, but both take a lot of time; they could be done in parallel. (Download next item while current item compiling.)
