Suggestion : add a parameter to choose if you want parallel downloads in /etc/pacman.conf

[erikdubois]

Here is a video that shows you we can gai, some time IF we activate parallel downloads.

one download : 7 min 7 sec and with 5 parallel downloads = 4 min 14 seconds https://youtu.be/cMWXdnauAa4?t=1097

Could you consider making another line asking us if we can activate parallel downloads? Deleting the "#" in /etc/pacman.conf would be already a great help as you see above.
