SIMH and cpuidle

   Are there any mechanisms to throttle simh's CPU usage?  I'd use it a 
lot more, but frankly my 11/53 is *quieter* than my PC or my G5 are with 
simh running.

   Both machines have load-based fans (a _bunch_ of them).  They're 
near-silent at normal loads, but simh jacks CPU usage to 100% even when 
it's idle.  That heats things up and I have a turbine in my lap.
