The name "pvec" is not very intuitive. What about "bpchunk"? And since the function passed to bpvectorize is already vectorized, maybe bpvectorize should be bparallelize? I know everyone has different intuitions/preferences when it comes to names, so feel free to disregard.
The pvec function evolved from the function of the same name in the multicore (now parallel) package, so it inherited the name. There's no reason we can't change it if something else seems more intuitive.
