I believe that TS2000i can take advantage of up to 8 cpu's at least
according to the information I once read on the OR website. Whether it's
true or not however is another story. I understand that the issue of
multi-threading is somewhat complex and it has to be implemented very
carefully in order to work properly. I have never read any post on this
list where a contributor mentions using more than 2.

The question is whether TS2K is "multi-cpu" aware... if not, then you're not
doing diddly with that second CPU. Because of that, I went to max out a
single CPU system over what I had previous which was twin-Xeon. Mostly all
my other financial softs only take advantage of 1 cpu as well.
Best regards,
Gene
