[GRASS-user] GRASS on Multi-Core CPUs?

   I know GRASS can be compiled and run on 64-bit processors, but can it be
configured and built to take advantage of multiple cores? My workstation has
a dual-core AMD CPU and my laptop has a quad-core Intel CPU. As I import and
re-project statewide hydrographic flowlines (> 800k lines) I wonder if the
processing would be quicker if GRASS took advantage of multiple cores.
