title: scala: parallel collections not working?
body: <p>i'm trying to usage parallel collections in a very basic way via .par - i expect the collection to be acted on out of order, but that doesn't seem the case:</p>
  
  <pre><code>scala&gt; (1 to 10) map println
  1
  2
  3
  4
  5
  6
  7
  8
  9
  10
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>and</p>
  
  <pre><code>scala&gt; (1 to 10).par map println
  1
  2
  3
  4
  5
  6
  7
  8
  9
  10
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>seems like the order shouldn't be sequential in the latter case. this is with scala 2.9, my machine has 2 cores. is this perhaps a misconfiguration somewhere? thanks!</p>
  
  <p>edit: i did indeed try running with a large set (100k) and the result was still sequential.</p>
