Didn't dhyatt and some others at Apple investigate something along
these lines in the context of OpenCL and the new 'Grand Central
Dispatch' stuff?

As I recall, they didn't experience a significant improvement for a
variety of reasons, though I think they were trying to parallelize
rendering of a single document, not rendering different documents on
different threads.
