Follow-up Comment #3, bug #30504 (project findutils):

'if the input is sufficiently large'?

In my case it would have to exceed 2MB of characters.  

In a practical sense that means it would never use more than one.

Thus my assertion that the algorithm is flawed.

If a user _uses_ -P by itself, what, exactly, do you think they mean by
typing that in?  That they only want parallel processing if input exceeds 2MB,
or that they want parallel processing?

Um...The former doesn't make rational sense.
