Running async tasks in parallel

Really love this package! Can't wait to see it land in Django core

I was wondering if it was possible to run tasks in parallel?

I have some slow network calls which I call asynchronously, but tasks are still executed sequentially. Is it possible to start processing the next task while awaiting a call in a previous one?

Currently no - each process runs just a single task concurrently. If you need to run multiple tasks at once, you'll need to run multiple worker processes.

It's something I think it would be great to support, particularly for async tasks, but working out the behaviour, especially when relating to non-async tasks is complex.
