I am looking for ways to reduce my process size for calls to mclapply. I
have determined that the size of my process is creating too much overhead
for the forking to be faster than a serial run. I am looking for some
techniques to experiment with. I have been getting huge efficiency gains
using mclapply if the process space is small.
