There’s a still-open bug with `pmap` and chunked seqs which sounds like
it may what you’re seeing:

    http://dev.clojure.org/jira/browse/CLJ-862

You can get `pmap` to work mostly-reasonably by unchunking input seqs
first, although I’ve found it doesn’t work well for many problems anyway
(no control over level of parallelism, FIFO ordering, etc).
