But processing power is not the only limitation and in many cases the limitation by the harddisk interface is more prominent. I.e. if the system is waiting for some disk write operation to finish in order to load the next block of media, even 8 cpus won't help much ;-)

I'm quite happy wich my AMD64 X2 4200+ after all. To me the difference of single core to multi core was much more noticeable then the difference of running in 32bit mode or 64bit mode Cheers, Hermann Vosseler -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.3 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://enigmail.mozdev.org iD8DBQFE8MIFZbZrB6HelLIRAjX0AJ9U07j005Eu+jN1fV0D170pBU9SVACeN0ZT gbSyfq9gA6gDOEB72DuMNn8= =PdwC -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- _______________________________________________ Cinelerra mailing list [email protected] https://init.linpro.no/mailman/skolelinux.no/listinfo/cinelerra
