I was also not sure about that, but as Michael has pointed out, that
doesn't matter anymore, because it now uses a private socket directory.
I have been pounding it a bit, and every so often the test_decoding
tests fail in mysterious ways, but otherwise it seems to work fine. I'm
curious what you are seeing.
Combining make -j10 and prove -j4, I get the run time down to 2 minutes
and a bit, from 20+ minutes. Using the -O option if you have GNU make
>=4 is also useful to get some more sane output.
