Indeed it isn't. I embarrassingly hadn't tested running `make test` with -j. The time it takes prove and `make test` to complete tests with -j 15 is the same (within a margin of error), although prove's output is much better.

I'll submit an improved patch that doesn't have a confusing commit message.
