Insanely fast whisper is mainly taking advantage of a GPU’s parallelization capabilities by increasing the batch size from 1 to N. I doubt it would meaningfully improve CPU performance unless you’re finding that running whisper sequentially is leaving a lot of your CPU cores idle/underutilized. It may be more complicated if you have a matrix co-processor available, I’m really not sure.
