More than 25 years ago people discovered that it is incredibly hard
to spread one program over multiple CPUs such that it keeps every
CPU busy all the time.
This is the main reason why doubling the number CPUs does not always
halve the execution time.
There are also hardware-level issues but their effect usually pales
in comparison.
