To keep the original thread nice and clean:

Quote from: Bob;209618@School:
1x Intel Pentium 4 3.0GHz with 1024MB RAM, running 2x F@H processes 24/7.

Could you get Dual Core P4s before the Core 2 Duo came out, or is that 2 processes running on a single core CPU? I know the P4 has hyperthreading, but does that make enough of a difference for F@H that you get faster results running 2 instances at a time?

Off the top of my head. I think hyperthreading gives you a 15% increase.

Well, all I know is that when I was running only one process (and it was set to run at 100%), when I looked at the process manager, it only utilized 50% of my total CPU...

I think this thread is for discussing the Inventory thread, so that it doesn't get messed up. :)
