charset="UTF-8" Currently, jevents.py parses hundreds of JSON event and metric files sequentially across all CPU architectures during Kbuild startup, taking ~3.3 seconds of pure single-core execution time. Refactor jevents.py to pre-populate its internal JSON AST cache in parallel across all available CPU cores using ProcessPoolExecutor. Define the worker process initializer _init_worker at the top-level module scope to guarantee flawless pickling and standard event mapping inheritance under spawn multiprocessing semantics (avoiding AttributeError crashes when spawn is used instead of fork). This accelerates jevents.py execution by over 11x (from 3.3s down to ~290ms), fully reclaiming multi-core concurrency during the build generation phase.
