The only way is to run multiple clients on that node concurrently. For example,
you could divide your filesystems into groups of N, where N is the number of
CPUs. Then have N clients do each a share of the total. It complicates things
since you actually have to specify the fileystems (instead of simply running an
inclremental) but can make for a dramatic improvement, especially when those
other CPUs are relatively idle.
