Isabel Drost-Fromm resolved MAHOUT-916.
---------------------------------------

       Resolution: Fixed
    Fix Version/s: 0.8

Final comment on that one: Current number of parallel threads is set to 1.5 
number of CPUs reported by your machine.

That means in order to avoid swapping (that is in order to avoid having your 
tests run slower than when executed sequentially) the max amount of memory for 
each thread should be configured to be mem of your machine / (1.5 * number of 
cores) - this can be done in the maven surefire plugin itself. Currently each 
thread is configured to use 1.8 gigs if I see that correctly. Reduce if you 
think this is too much for your average developer's machine.
