I seem to have misremembered this part: it is single core.
(doesn't change much as far as cpufreq/heat is concerned though)

Also, it had been a while but it has actually gotten much better after I
added /.snapshots and similar paths to PRUNEPATHS, so this isn't as much
of a problem as I remembered, but could still be a problem for large
filesystems

Still interested if anyone knows how to do this!
