Not much.  I followed the single threaded code pretty closely though,
then used what I think is the current idiomatic C++ method of doing this
stuff with threads, since C++ doesn't have Ada-like tasks.

Yes I'll see if I can rework the C++ code to not launch new threads at
each run.  The total number of threads launched isn't all that large
though, and there are never more than 4 running concurrently.
