 The following computation takes a lot of time:

 {{{
 sage: from sage.games.quantumino import QuantuminoSolver
 sage: QuantuminoSolver(0).number_of_solutions()  # long time (about 30
 days)
 }}}

 but we can make it faster by doing the computation in parallel... This
 ticket does this. It is motivated by a question I received from Nicolaas
 Neuwahl, the designer of the  Quantumino puzzle:

    ''can you tell me HOW MANY different quantumino-solutions exist?''

 The
 
[http://familygamesamerica.com/mainsite/consumers/productview.php?pro_id=274&search=quantumino
 official website] says ''there are over 10.000 potential solutions''.
