I’m using the PerconaXtraDBClusterRestore Custom Resource for a scenario of disaster recovery of several database clusters simultaneously.

I’m noticing that the restore jobs are executed one at a time. That can take a long time depending on the amount and size of clusters to be restored.

Since each of them has its own bucket/prefix location, there’s nothing stopping the operator from launching jobs in parallel.

Is there any way to configure this? The documentation mentions a `backup.allowParallel` for the Backup CR but there’s nothing similar for restores.
