I've been using lxbroy10 for some importer-related benchmarks (which 
require(d) lots of GBs of RAM) but were only single-threaded. With 
recent improvements I'll probably be able to move back to lxbroy7-8 or 
even macbroy2x...

At a later stage, benchmarking a parralelized import may be interesting, 
but we are not there yet.
