Rollout results match up more to my initial expectations (see below). Asking for more threads than the 8 available does not improve speeds. Performance tails off as the number of threads approaches the maximum. I put this down to a combination of: priority set to "idle", other tasks being run on the computer, the OS overhead, the thread-management overhead. If the speed evaluation is broken, I suggest it be removed from the menu until it is fixed (if ever). Cheers, Ian Rollout of inital 43: 13/9 13/10 1296 trials on "expert" settings.
