Fair enough.
Well, that could work but the speedups would be sub linear.
The reason is the outer shells tend to be both dense and done slowly with the outermost shell done very slowly in order to get a good surface finish. The inside is usually filled with a sparse hexagonal infill pattern (ofen to a density of only 10% or so) and done much faster.
A matrix like system could certainly be able to speed up the infilling, but I think you end up running in to Amdhal's law quite fast.
I haven't run the numbers however, but either way it would depend on the shape. A large, smooth shape would be optimal (lots of volume) whereas a very involuted shape would see little or no benefit at all.
