Multithreaded search for large key sets

Hi,

I use gperf and I'm happy with the results that I get. However, perhaps due to algorithms or the implementation, gperf is quite slow for moderate key sets (5000-10000). As a results, to be usable, gperf has to be used without multiple iterations, otherwise, to find optional coefficients I'd need to wait minutes or even hours. For that reason perhaps many projects cannot even try to use gperf.
I noticed that gperf doesn't use all the cores when performing the search, probably because gperf was written before multicore CPUs were common. Can you please update gperf to take advantage of modern multicore CPUs?

Thanks
