It's a quad-core machine, so it should be possible to run four copies of
mprime concurrently without it falling over. 

Latest update - it was suggested I install 10.3, then upgrade to the
latest kernel.  Which has very surprisingly had the effect that I can
now run one copy of mprime a lot longer than before.  I had one copy
running almost eight hours last night. 

I asked AMD for a CPU diagnostic tool, but they can only supply
something for Windows.
