Jim Reed 2002-08-30 05:39:45 | That option is only helpful for multi-processor machines. If you have a dual processor machine and set threads=2, then you should get two simulations running at the same time (keeping both processors busy). If you set threads to a number greater than the number of processors in your machine, it will be less efficient because of the overhead necessary to switch back and forth between multiple simulations. |
