-i is not indispensible to multi-threading. Either of these will make moses
run multi-threaded:
  .../moses -f moses.ini -threads 8 -i input.txt
  .../moses -f moses.ini -threads 8 < input.txt
are you running in a virtual machine? How many cores does your computer
have, and how many has the virtual machine been set to use?
