Yes, Kylin supports in parallel segment building. It seems to be a bug
introduced in KYLIN-3977 in Kylin 2.6.3. Would you like to create it as a
JIRA so that you can get notified when there is a hot-fix? The JIRA can be
reported in https://issues.apache.org/jira/secure/Dashboard.jspa , and
selecting KYLIN as the project. Thank you!
