I found a way to force parallel processing of all my testCases with TestRunner.bat CLI
Now I can execute a specific TestSuite in 5 seconds (parallel) instead of 45 seconds in sequence.

Create a Groovy Script as the first testStep of your first testCase.
Copy these line into this groovy script:

import com.eviware.soapui.model.testsuite.TestSuite.TestSuiteRunType

log.info testRunner.testCase.testSuite.getRunType()
testRunner.testCase.testSuite.setRunType(TestSuiteRunType.PARALLEL)
assert testRunner.testCase.testSuite.getRunType() == TestSuiteRunType.PARALLEL


Be sure to locate this Groovy Script at the top of your test cases.
TestSuite
   TestCase_1
      TestStep
         ThisGroovyScript
   TestCase_2
   TestCase_3
   ...
