I want to understand how many threads Gingerbread generates in order to 
understand how the browser performance scale with multicores? For example, if  
"a few " means 2, that means 4 cores wouldn't scale the browser performance by 
anywhere close to 4 times. I understand that Gingerbread doesn't officially 
support SMP, sometimes browser does crash on multicore platforms, it's not a 
problem for me though.
