Can shave 90% of current generation time off with threads - make all the icons at once!

Thought about that too. Might give a spin.

To try that I changed a lot of the internal structure (for the general good) and although I could make it work, also without breaking the specs, it didn't seem to have any positive impact. I benchmarked only with the time command on OS X. It was utilising more than one CPU, but clocked in at the same total or slightly worse than the single threaded version.
