As an experiment, I set the blas threads to 1, and enable threads on the matmul testset.

Ref #239

Edit:
Set BLAS threads to 2 to reduce change of OOM on windows and reduce contention

Discussed this on the call, and we decided to set the number of threads to 2 everywhere. That should solve our memory issues, and also exercise multithreading paths.

Is this good to merge?

Can you update the PR title to reflect the final contents of the PR?

Don't merge this yet; I think Kristoffer and I have found that we are actually only supposed to be using one thread on CI. I think we need to solve the timing issue in Distributed's setting of threads, first.

So distributed should be passing the number of threads as 1 already? But doesn't?
