Is it possible to use more than 1 CPUs during pkg create?

Yes, compressing with one thread achieves the best ratio. However, it is
really a little bit.

I created a package of x11-fonts as example of a big package. Its size
is 813230580 bytes. Then I recompressed the package with -T0 option,
the archive is just 1% larger.

# make -C /usr/ports/x11-fonts/noto package
$ ls noto*
-rw-r--r--  1 meta  wheel  813230580 May 30 21:30 noto-1.0.5_1.txz

$ zcat noto-1.0.5_txz | xz -T0 -c > noto-1.0.5_1.txz.T0
$ ls noto*
-rw-r--r--  1 meta  wheel  813230580 May 30 21:30 noto-1.0.5_1.txz
-rw-r--r--  1 meta  wheel  821921768 May 30 21:45 noto-1.0.5_1.txz.T0

I understand the merit of compressing package in single thread distributed
by pkg.freebsd.org. However, I'd rather save time than storage or
network bandwidth. I want to make `make package` faster on my host.
The build can use multi cores but pkg create process uses only one so
package stage is the bottle neck.

Do you mean I can use -T0 during pkg create? AFAIK it is not possible
but if possible, how?
