Indeed it is. They are trying to improve that in Java 7; I read a
couple of articles describing the new fork/join framework:

http://www.ibm.com/developerworks/java/library/j-jtp11137.html
http://www.ibm.com/developerworks/java/library/j-jtp03048.html

I've not used the stuff myself, as I try to steer clear of Java
whenever possible, but it looks like it is a move in the right
direction.
