We now have a very beefy bare-metal (96 CPUs, 256Gi RAM) machine available for testing, and we would like to advise teams to use the beefy HW as much as possible. A common scenario for this machines will be teams running local VMs for their testing. Once they onboard to tmt including test metadata, they would want to run the tests in parallel.
For these cases, it seems it would be valuable if tmt would provide a way to parallelize test execution.
Note that currently one possible issue here is that each test run execution is run in the same test dir, teams have to implement workarounds like RHSecurityCompliance/contest@fd519da to workraound the problem.

Related to #2755. Over there I point out that it can be disastrous in MPI tests if the inner test parallelization is not considered. I like ctest approach where you can define individual test's processor and other resources and then it queues accordingly, where the -j accounts both for test mpi parallelization and ctest workers combined. Tmt should have a similar interface.
