Dunno if I've done it correct, but I've set 19 to the boinc manager
autogroup and some of
the seti@...e clients, but the clients of course keep changing.

But when I build on Intel(R) Core(TM) i7 CPU         870  @ 2.93GHz,
it's still a lot slower.

time make -j12
real	2m58.437s
user	10m58.010s
sys	1m45.610s

I can try the same thing at home on my Q6600 machine if I upgrade it,
cause of course the Core i7 doesn't actually have 8 cores, they are
just hyperthreaded. It might be a factor.

Or am doing something horribly wrong when I try to set the autogroup to 19?
