Can metamath automatically use all the CPUs available when doing a minimize run?

All systems have temperature measures that should prevent any permanent damage 
and automatically slow down as necessary. Also, some modern computers are 
designed to run absurdly hot. Yes, some systems have defects in their 
temperature measurement systems, but those should be relatively rare. So you 
should not be afraid to run a minimization.

I might be able to run minimization on a useful beefy system, but I'll have to 
check first.
