Desired functionality.

Looks like happypack now deals well with typescript loaders.

What about using it to improve build time?

Mention any other details that might be useful.

In case it's helpful we've put some docs in place: https://github.com/typestrong/ts-loader#happypackmode-boolean-defaultfalse

And it's now in the official happypack documentation as well: https://github.com/amireh/happypack#does-it-work-with-typescript

Closing as this doesn't fall in our roadmap especially considering AOT compilation.

:( We have more and more available threads, even in mainstream CPUs. Would be useful to benefit of parallelization in project build times. Also, especially useful for AOT compilation, because it takes more time.
Are there other plans for parallelization?
