About whether running a segment of code like

  PAR
    p1
    p2

will run sequentially or parallel on a SINGLE transputer, my experience
tells me that the transputer did do a time slice scheduling. This
is because if the above code were to run on a single transputer then
it will run slower than a sequential one, ie:

  SEQ
    p1
    p2

The slower performance is due to task switching.
