great job. I think there should be a flag to switch back to single threaded mode too

I tried to look and see if there were any configuration options I needed to add, but there’s nothing here mentioning anything (blog post just says “install and test it out”, and none of the other coverage I’ve seen says anything about it either. man pacman doesn’t have it either. But yeah, after adding “ParallelDownloads = 5” to /etc/pacman.conf, it works wonderfully. I’m so hyped for this change, great work.

I mean, pacman “works”, but there’s no parallel downloading, I’ve tried twice now.
