mkcomposefs: multi-threading support #249

Closed r0l1 closed 6 months ago

It would be great, if mkcomposefs would support multi-threading. Processing a lot of files takes a long time, even if my machine has 31 idle CPU threads.

This is due to the computation of the digest for all the backing files. This could probably be done in parallel, yes.
