1.) The only way threads get you a speedup is when you write your code in
such a way that sections of it can be executed in parallel so you can take
advantage of multiple cores (or processors).

2.) The current version of Ruby only supports green threads anyhow.  So even
if you did have multiple cores, you wouldn't get a speedup.
