Looking at the source code, it seems this crate always uses a sequential algorithm and only one core, even when the scrypt parameter p is larger than 1. For p>1, the derivation could be made faster by using a parallel algorithm. Are there plans to implement this?

pbkdf2 has the parallel feature, which uses rayon for computing long output keys (though AFAIK such keys are usually not used in practice since they do not improve security). A PR which will add a similar feature to scrypt is welcomed!
