Depends. He mentions having a dual core CPU. It could well be that it's
running on only one core and the other isn't being used. I think he was
asking for a way to check that both cores are being used, and if not,
how to get there. I think if I had forked out the cash for a dual core
CPU like he did, I would probably be asking myself the very same
question to make sure I didn't waste money ! ;o)
