I decided to automate the installation of packages in Windows using powershell. Now the script looks like a sequence of commands Install-Package (package name). Everything works, but it works very slowly. The packages are downloaded sequentially and not very fast. Is it possible to download packages in parallel?

in theory, the installation of each package starts a background job.

There is an opinion that parallel software installations may conflict with each other.
