[yocto] Shorter build time?

Hmm, thank you for your comments.

So, they may be talking about single-thread nature within a python program, and as for bitbake python tasks they should be working in parallel.


There seems to be PyPy, Stackless Python, etc. but I am not sure they can be tried 'in-place' to see if they work faster.

So we have full parallelism :)
