Can I use SplitChunksPlugin for deduplicating code used between parallel-build bundles

Explain the problem

Hi! I'm curious if there is a way to use SplitChunksPlugin with parallel-webpack. Current problem is: we have an array of different configurations that are built in parallel, but we also have duplicate code chunks in resulting bundles.

SplitChunksPlugin works great, but as builds are parallelized, we have multiple different "commons" chunks, each one for build.

Basically I want to create a single one "commons" bundle, that contains all common files (that are imported N or more times) between all parallel-built bundles, and those bundles should reference it.

Is it possible?

We don't have that at the moment because we don't intercept anything Webpack does.

If the list of modules that you want to be included is finite, you could consider using the DllPlugin instead.
