Comment (by humasect):

 Yes, I almost thought this would do it, there is no error when executing
 GHCi this way. But actually:

 4.12.1. Options to enable SMP parallelism

 In order to make use of multiple CPUs, your program must be linked with
 the -threaded option (see Section 4.10.7, “Options affecting
 linking”). Then, to run a program on multiple CPUs, use the RTS -N
 option <cut>

 Would this only mean that GHC needs to be instead built with -threaded
 +RTS -Nx for this ability? We need the computing power over here.
