With the recent commit 0501b29e7a
("status: Use multiprocessing for `repo status -j<num>` instead of
threading"), the limitation with project serialization no longer
applies. It turns out that ad-hoc logic is expensive. In the CrOS
checkout (~1000 projects w/8 jobs by default), it adds about ~7sec
overhead to all invocations. With a fast nop run:
time repo forall -j8 -c true
This goes from ~11sec to ~4sec -- more than 50% speedup.
