Parallel execution of Passolo's batch mode command /generate

Question

We're using Passolo's command line mode to update the project and then generate satellite assemblies. This process takes about 15 minutes. We'd like to parallelize the generation of the satellite assemblies in a way where we can generate the assemblies for one language in parallel. We noticed that Passolo is not able to open the same project file in several instances, even if the project file is readonly.
--> Is there a way to accomplish parallel execution of targets?

SDL Passolo can open projects in a shared mode, but the process of creating satellite assemblies requires exclusive access to projects. Opening the project in a second instance may access the same files and may crash the software. This is why creating satellite assemblies is not enabled in shared mode that requires full access to multiple translation lists. 
 
If you just have one target language per project you can run multiple instances in parallel. Each instance will require a separate license and separated profile folders.
