Yes.

To be more specific, e. g. parallel filter processing is already in 
development, it even runs, yet it is somehow efficient only for long running 
filters. Import/export all is more than 100 times slower for now.

It may happen that some multithreading will be released maybe during 2020. 
There is still quite a big technological debt to be paid until we can deem at 
least some parts of BIRD thread-safe. Even the new filter code is not 
thread-safe completely as it calls old routines without appropriate locking.

I don't promise anything. BIRD's architecture relies heavily on single thread 
execution and all the code has to be thoroughly checked until we can run 
something in parallel.
