Description

When installing meta modules like Az / AzureRM each of the required modules gets installed sequentially which is painfully slow and could be greatly improved.

Therefore I would ask that as a feature request for PSGet v3 that dependencies could be installed via some form of parallelisation as to reduce overall installation time
