Using parallellism for parallellism's sake is not sane behavior. In
places where the operations are CPU bound using parallellism can be
fruitful.

That's why all the parallel for's i've introduced involve arithmetic operations. I agree arbitrarily inserting parallel regions makes no sense. It's possible to "feel" which ones won't cause penalties based on the loop length and the inner body. BTW, i plan to remove some in future patches.
