Tony you are of course quite correct. We are all different, - my point in the argument i think is that if we take this to the extreme then we, end up at the lowest common denominator which is not what we want to do. So we have to draw a line somewhere and my idea of where to draw that line is

Dave, That's a complex answer and you can't really answer it properly in a forum for such a broad range of setups. I'll try to answer as generically as possible focusing on O/S and CPU threading specifically. Please correct me if I'm wrong here. You don't really need multiple processors to
