Hi I do not know if this has been discussed in this group before... (I am guessing it is...)
Many modern computers are running multicore CPU's. I have noticed that FGFS only uses one thread in one core. And FGFS appears to be processor bound on my Core-I7, because the one core thread is 100% busy while my FPS are dropping in areas with a lot of scenery details (like Paris, for instance) and lots of rendering goodies switched on. I do understand that in the main loop of FGFS many subsystems are related. But would it be possible to identify subsystems that can be grouped to run on other cores, when available? I am thinking about weather and clouds, drawing the dials on the dashboard and things like that. It would be neat if more of the computing power that is available could be used. m ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ This SF.net email is sponsored by Sprint What will you do first with EVO, the first 4G phone?
