I mean, yes I'm spoiled with git being able to merge hundreds of patches is seconds, but this is rediculous! :-) I've tried running for it for a while, and THM0 and THM1 are in the 80-83 degree range, but it's not going above that. According to THM1 has a passive trip point at 96 degrees, and a critical trip point at 100 degrees, but with your test case I'm not going anywhere near that level. Just for yucks I tried running a second copy of your test case (since I hae a dual-core processor), and with the second core also busy 100%, I was able to drive the temperature up another degree or two, but that was about it.
