Description
Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
Deleting monorepo packages is pretty slow - it would be nice if there was a divide and concur flag that I could set.
Describe the solution you'd like
When hitting space and start deleting a directory, parse the files,folders and group them into smaller array sets like 50 packages per array, then pass this to a worker or something to execute FS deletes in parallel
Describe alternatives you've considered
