I have created a simple time-exhaustive function to compute some
million elements FFT. Each call was taking approximately 5 secs.
However I couldn't get speed-ups with @parallel on my dual core 2.5
Ghz cpu laptop. Could you provide an example showing the @parallel use
with an easy-observable example? I am going to give a demonstration on
Wednesday and I would like to be able to demonstrate this feature as
well.

Thanks again William.
