Subject: [bug#39728] [PATCH v2] Allow parallel downloads and builds

Hello,

On a recent daemon, have you seen cases where having multiple downloads
in parallel speeds things up?

The analysis in
<https://guix.gnu.org/en/blog/2021/getting-bytes-to-disk-more-quickly/>
suggests that at the time you first submitted this patch, substitution
speed (which is different from raw download speed) was often CPU-bound.
This is no longer the case, meaning that downloads should now be
network-bound or almost.

Thanks,
Ludo’.
