perf report/script can be already parallelized with --time xx/x% and a
simple shell script that runs multiple processes. While that's a bit
awkward for interactive use it works fine for scripting. I use it all
the time for PT batch processing for example. The real bottleneck we
have is really record on systems with many CPUs (which are more and more
common), and that can only be fixed with some variant of this patch kit.
