[Bug-gnubg] Re: Getting gnubg to use all available cores

[Frank Berger]

Hi,

but under the given circumstances (OS X with 2 quad core Nehamlem)  
shouldn't be at least 4 Cores busy? I have to admit, that I have lost  
the motivation to follow the CUP-Specs, simply resignation by the  
sheer number of them and my disability to remember the funny code  
names or product numbering, but I would be very astonished if not all  
cores on 1 CPU are treated the same from the point of memory?

On pre Nehalems BGB had no difficulties to keep 8 cores busy (although  
it scales not very well beyond 4 cores. Maybe the endgame DB is the  
culprit because it serializes all accesses) but I have no data about  
Nehalm CPUs.

ciao
