Pradyun Gedam (a mentor of mine) -suggested making [a proof of concept][] to determine if parallel downloading -can play nicely with ResolveLib_'s abstraction and we are reviewing it -together. On the technical side, we `pip`'s committers are exploring -{{pip 8169 "available options for parallelization"}} and I made an attempt to -{{pip 8320 "make use of Python's standard worker pool in a portable way"}}. - -## Did I get stuck anywhere? - -Yes, of course!
