feature request: distribute work over different cpu cores
cfn-lint version: (0.39)
Description of issue.
I have a build process that i made cfn-lint part of. the build process outputs a rather large number of cloudformation files. as a result running cfn-lint takes quite a bit of time.
Started doing some performance checks and determining where I would want to split out over cores. My going in assumption was spreading the rule executions against the cores was the way to go. However after evaluating some performance measures I noticed some inefficiencies in the rule loading process in relation to executing cfn-lint against many templates. Going to work on that first. From there I will work to determine where it makes sense to split across the cores.
Great! Would be happy to help by providing performance measurements or otherwise 👍
@OlafConijn The first part of this has been merged. Now we are on to figuring out how to spread across many cores. Originally I was thinking of doing this per rule but now I think it would be easier to do per template.
