1773514 - Run `./mach package-multi-locale` with multiple jobs

Status: RESOLVED FIXED

(Firefox Build System :: General, enhancement)

Description

[Malte Jürgens [:maltejur]]

Currently, the ./mach package-multi-locale takes a long time if you include a lot of locales, in extreme cases even longer than the actual Firefox build itself. Most of this time is spent running the different make targets chrome-{locale} one after another. It would be a lot faster if all those targets would run in parallel.

The Bugbug bot thinks this bug should belong to the 'Firefox Build System::General' component, and is moving the bug to that component. Please correct in case you think the bot is wrong.

The bug assignee is inactive on Bugzilla, so the assignee is being reset.
