Bug Description
I'm repurposing a fanless mini PC with a 32GB solid state drive.
Installation is progressing, but for a looong time I was watching it prepare locales. It was only running one prepare at a time, despite having 4 cores: top shows just 25% utilisation.
Would it be possible to do that step across all cores in parallel?

The lack of multicore processing is dependent on `locale-gen`. See here for more info and a potential fix: /bugs.gentoo. org/show_ bug.cgi? id=592300
