Thank you for the tip! However, I ran into a pitfall:
Activating parallel build also starts the pre-build skript in parallel, which sort of defeats the purpose 😞 Does anyone know about a solution that let's me benefit from a faster build, but does execute the pre build skript as one would expect?

Thanks
