Parallelize amass enumeration #5
Description
amass creates a huge bottleneck at the end of subdomain enumeration. One way to speed this up is to separate it's enumeration over multiple amass DBs and concat the resulting JSONs.
This can be achieved by explicitly disabling all but a few sources in the config.ini and increasing -max-dns-queries.
All amass data sources disabled:
output_directory = /amass<i>
maximum_dns_queries = 1000
[disabled_data_sources]
data_source = AlienVault
data_source = ArchiveIt
data_source = ArchiveToday

Since amass locks it's DB during execution, we need to provide different output directories for each execution of it. The initial idea is to just incremented the output_directory in the config.
