ну это то понятно, кому-то кажется, что вроде бы, несколько лучше и глаже. Это понятно, что если в системе запущена ресурсоемкая задача (ну например перерисовка экрана с оширной графикой), то даже если эта задача не использует второе ядро, то в двуядерной ситеме она должна работать лучше, хотя бы потому, что захваченное ей ядро не будет отвлекаться операционной системой на нужды ОС.
я то имел в виду, что не планируется ли в критичных с точки быстродействия местах задействовать оба ядра на эту одну задачу. Как например общеизвестно, что wirar поддерживает двуядерные процессоры и соответственно скорость упаковки\распаковки в двуядерной системе почти в 2 раза выше.
Ресурсоемкие задачи уже распараллеливаются - например автотрассировка в Xtreme
Проблема в том, что очень немногие задачи поддаются распараллеливанию. Второй вопрос это ... лицензирование второго параллельного процесса (вопрос тонкий - ибо денежный

).
А вообще конечно думают.

#
Problems Fixed in OCUR12 - NC Drill:

This fix is for contour hole restrictions for NC Drill output. If a contour is created with a hole name "No Tool Contour" and the hole size is less than 3 um or 3 th depending on the design units, then the NC drill engine does not output this contour. 2 EXP2005 SPac1 OCUR12 Release Notes December, 2006.
Note: This fix is only for NC Drill in this OCUR. However, Manufacturing Output Validation (MOV) fails if validation is done for generated NC Drill having contours with holes less that 3Th or 3um. MOV reports the following error message in that case: “THIS PACKAGE CONSIDERED INVALID FOR MANUFACTURING PURPOSES.“
