Clarification for you. Windows and many other programs can run on core 0, while graal could run on its own on core 1 for an example. Now if graal locked up and used 100% of core 1. Why would I care now? I could use all of core 0 still to access all my programs and do whatever I so desired, because I still have a processor to use that isnt busy.
Setting Graal to a core 1 with affinity like that could easily solve any windows lagg I could possibly have.
And yes, it does have seperate CPU usage PER core. Meaning it would show up 2 graphs instead of just 1 total graph. To use Dual core or Dual Processors you need XP Profession or XP Professional x64. Because the Windows XP Home edition will not utilize more then 1 core at any time. Even if you had 3 or 4, it still would use only one with XP Home. That by the way, is something Microsoft doesn't try to tell you. |
