[mercury-users] Threaded processing slower than sequential?

In my experience with the parallel mode, I believe that the garbage
collection is the culprit. Especially if you are doing lots of
little data allocations. Running a threaded application but with
only one thread active under windows I had a 10x slow-down.
My suspicion is that it was due to GC, as the generated code should've
been the same.
