I created the code to test for multiple CPUs (and distinguish between
logical CPUs added by hyperthreading and "real" cores). It will be in
the next release.

However ISTM multiple CPUs shouldn't make much difference here, since
the B&V program is not multithreaded.

Perhaps it would be nicer to execute the benchmarking and validation in
a secondairy thread? This would make the GUI more responsive during
testing (on multiprocessor machines anyway; the benchmarks will of
course have higher priority then the GUI thread in this case).

Any opinions on this last point?
