Thanks, I remembered seeing that availableProcessors property in
Clojure code somewhere, turns out it was right under my nose...
Anyway, I'm hoping to use a Grand Central Dispatch-using ThreadPool or
some such thing in the future; for now pmap is doing fine when handed
sufficiently coarse chunks of data for processing.

Through happy coincidence I was just browsing the slides deck. :-)

And now I'm tempted to play with "PersistentConc" in Clojure...

All the best,
