Heh, yes ... I didn't pose the question quite right ...

... but, despite that, you correctly inferred what I was really
asking about! :)

I was just wondering what overhead the parallel processing machinery
adds to the original 'non-parallel' code path (for the j=1 case).
I suspect the answer is 'not much', but that's just a guess.
Have you measured it? What happens if there is only a single
submodule to fetch?
