I have been debugging c++ code essentially non-stop for the last four days and my eyes are burning out... but to the best of my recollection this is true under NT. Unless they've changed it under w2k/xp. Mind you I said "threads" not "processes". A thread is a sub-unit of an application or process. Some applications may haves hundreds of threads that come and go at every keystroke. NT, the last time I looked, by default remembers what processor a given thread last ran on it and continues to run it on that processor if at all possible whenever it reappears. You can strongly suggest which processor a given thread is to run on as well. I suspect there are very few programs that bother with such things however. --min ______________________________________________________________________ Signup for the Fusion Authority news alert and keep up with the latest news in ColdFusion and related topics. http://www.fusionauthority.com/signup.cfm FAQ: http://www.thenetprofits.co.uk/coldfusion/faq Archives: http://www.mail-archive.com/cf-talk@houseoffusion.com/ Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/index.cfm?sidebar=lists
