The next releases of BABL, GEGL and GIMP will have big improvements related to performance ; the "2 cores issue" is now fixed :

thank you, tmanni - indeed, as you said, the new GIMP/GEGL 2.10/0.4.18 versions really work much better ! all cores are now used, and, importantly, the output of c2g looks much more pleasing - though i still have to compare it with the c2g conversion results done with v2.6.
