Parallel projects compilation

Hi,
i work on a big project (>200 projects in the cbp) which really begins to take a while to build. Codeblocks parallel build works well within a project, but most of the time my CPU (dual XEON) does almost nothing (during link time). In fact in my tests even i activate all the cores in codeblocks there are almost no gain.
Why codeblocks doesn't allow to build projects in parallel like visual studio for example ? Many of my projects could be built at the same time but there is no way in codeblocks to manage that.
That can't be an IO issue since SSD drives are far from being used at their maximum in the build process. Any though ?

Thanks,
