Don't do this. Start one server at a time and wait till it
finishes. Time this server. To reduce the time for this you can make
the game shorter ("set endyear 100" for example). If your computer is
still to slow or you want a larger game you may use rt.freeciv.org or
www.freeciv.org (but both have normal "background" load which can
cause unstable results) . The information you posted have no value.
