Public bug reported:

Openshot doesn't seem to utilise multiprocessor CPUs very well.

I have an intel i7 920 (4 cores, 8 threads) - when encoding video
openshot manages approx 130% CPU (i.e 1.3 threads on average). Kdenlive
also uses mlt but runs an mlt-melt command line to do the rendering
which manages 220% CPU
