Basically to make use of multiple processors the requirement for an application is that it break it's load apart into multiple threads. If CF runs as a single thread it can not take special advantage of a MP system (beyond the obvious fact that the OS may or may not place it's thread on a CPU different than most other currently running apps.) To be optimized for MP essentially boils down to an app being written as multiple thread-safe threads. The OS will spread said threads out among the CPU's in a manner that is beyond the scope of this message to explain. --min ______________________________________________________________________ Your ad could be here.
