[amibroker] Dual processor - will it help?

I am considering buying a dual-processor CPU system to help reduce 
the wait time for backtests among other things. On tomshardware.com  
(http://www6.tomshardware.com/cpu/200203131/dual-10.html) it says:

"This comparison between the two workstation platforms from AMD and 
Intel clearly shows that dual operation does not necessarily mean 
increased speed for all applications. Rather, you need software that 
has been specially adapted to multiprocessor operation, so that the 
load is equally distributed between the two CPUs."

Can anyone shed some light on whether Amibroker is able to take full 
advantage of a dual-processor system and perhaps reduce the wait 
time for backtests/explorations considerably (ideally reduce it by 
50%) ?

Thanks
