Andrew,
I thought that I had covered my ass sufficiently on my post. I
mentioned that there were things to be said for dual processors but that the
same old problems would probably still plague Protel's performance. Wasn't
that enough, or is there something wrong with that statement? I left the
door wide open for you if you wanted to comment about the dual processors, I
know you are an ardent fan of the dual processors. I only commented that the
seemingly dead process problems with 'Protel' did not seem to improve
significantly with the increased performance of dual processors and that it
seemed time limited (some form of process timeout) rather then performance
limited. The problem with public forums is that you can never cover your ass
enough to everybody's liking.
Andrew, I don't know if you think that I am one who has argued
against you on this dual processor issue, I have not. However, I can't get
my company to dish out for a single processor at even 1Ghz so a dual is out
of the question. I do understand the layman's version of what a dual does
for you and it matches well with your more detailed technical description.
That is why I left the door open so wide, I figured that you might step up
to the plate and take a crack at the ball.
Have a good one buddy, however please try just a little bit harder to
recognize friend from foe. I hate friendly fire incidents, they are so
tragic.
