I think GENERAL:cores sets the maximum number of active EMS steps, it doesn't change the number of threads used for decoding.  You need to set the decoder's -threads N option in TUNING:decoder-settings and/or EVALUATION:decoder-settings.

A caveat is that the output to stderr will be messed up, though that's true for multi-threaded moses as well.

Is it as simple as setting the
[GENERAL]
cores = 8
in the config file, and making sure the decoding was compiled with threads?
