rformance will be almost linear (or perhaps even
super-linear) in the number of cores (i.e. dual-core gives twice the
performance of a single-core) but it may also be that due to threads
contending for various resources performance will only improve marginally.
Usually the result is somewhere in between, but again the only way to tell
