but still leaves a lot of resources free. I can actually run two renders at one time with no problem.
This looks a lot better. The default scripts just use 2 core only, you need to tune a bit the scripts for your hardware. For instance, you could edit the scenes/classroom/render-fast.cfg and change the following lines:
opencl.latency.mode = 0
opencl.nativethread.count = 4
screen.refresh.interval = 2000
This lines above enable "high bandwidth" mode (for rendering of still images) and increase the number of threads run on the CPU to 4 (however 3 could be a more appropriate value, it depends from your CPU/GPU combo).
