Parallel build not only for full builds?

GENERAL

I noticed that the (new) option “Allow build in parallel”

has only an effect for Full (Clean) Builds and if the option “Max simultaneous project builds” is > 1

Are there plans to trigger the parallel build also for “normal” builds (e.g. pressing save when Project / Build automatically is enabled)?

I have a “Util” bundle (static helper methods etc.) which is a dependency in 50 other bundles. So a single change causes a rebuild of a lot of bundles. I am hoping for a performance-boost for building if this option could also have an effect when Saving a file.

Yes, but it is taking time … It is currently not activated since the Eclipse build infrastructure does not support this in a proper way, the java support crashes now and then in parallel mode.
