Description

this started out in 2.1.0. To avoid file locking issues parallelism was limited to artifacts in different groups. However, I'm now of the opinion this is not necessary and we should investigate allowing jars to be downloaded in parallel regardless of group.

Don has also suggested some improvements to the synchronization that might make the code cleaner and faster, which I'll look for him to add here.
