When you said "and of course", I thought you were going to say "allow 
scripts that have no inter-dependency to start in parallel". Having a 
concurrency level of at least 2 should speed the start up considerably, 
especially when packages are taking long to start mostly because they do 
a sleep in wait for some hardware to settle.

Coming to think of it, maybe concurrency level of 2 is a little low.
