there is none provided by the package itself. there is some optimization
behind variogram() for gridded data, as opposed to irregular points. For
data sizes this large, I'd start thinking about how to work with samples
of the data, rather than the full data, for computing variograms.

I can't see why fit.variogram would make sense to parrallelize.
