It’s an Amdahl’s law sort of thing, you can extract some of the parallelism with scikit-learn but what’s left is serialized. Particularly for those interactive jobs where you might write plain ordinary Python snippets that could get a 12x speedup (string parsing for a small ‘data lake’)

In so far as it is all threaded for C and Python you can parallelize it all with one paradigm that also makes a mean dynamic web server.
