I'm not sure this feature would be useful in that case: valgrind needs lots of 
memory, and 2 valgrind process may be too much. I'm searching a way to make a 
single test run on 2 processors.
If 2 valgrind can be run at the same time, I can run 2 ctest at the same time 
to try to complete the tests in 24h on the same host.
