Use the -A switch (see the readme) to configure a separate image of the EXE.
ALso set the affinity (under advanced) when it is running so the processor
preference will be set in the control file (one image per processor).
Expect the speed to slow down per instance..
if I run one image it gets .22/LL
if I run two images they get .25/LL
if I run three images they get .33/LL
if I run four images they get .4/LL
go figure ... the overhead is a strange curve.... but at .4/ll with 4 working
it takes about 28 days to complete or 7 days each avg. WHere with one at .22
it would be about 16 days for one LL.
(if I run factors with the 4 processors they each complete a factor a day)
