I agree with Philip; I'd be surprised if the actual parsing of the
makefiles was causing much slowdown.  The make parser is somewhat ad
hoc, but it's pretty fast overall.

However, to answer your question: no, there is no way to have make read
files in parallel.  In order to do that, make would have to be
multithreaded and that's a whole other level of complexity and system
requirements that is completely unnecessary.
