Parallel world of OpenCV (HaarTraining)

If you want to generate cascade with OpenCV training tools, you should be ready for waiting plenty of time. For example, on training set: 3000 positive / 5000 negative, it takes about 6 days! to get cascade for face detection.  I wanted to generate many cascades with different training sets, also I added my own features to standart OpenCV’s ones  and refactor algorithms a little bit.  So waiting for 6 days to understand, that your cascade does nothing good =) was really anoying.  To reduce time, I chose paralleling methods.
