Hi all, apologies for my dumbness, I just couldn't see an answer anywhere that explicitly answers this question. I'm sure the answer is going to be a resounding "yes!" but I just wanted to be sure.....does Slitaz take full advantage of all the cores available on a multi-core cpu?

Thanks....and please try not to hate me for my stupidity!

Key Master

Yes and no. The Kernel is compiled with the support, but most of the software doesn't always use more than one of the cores.

thanks for the quick response :)

I guess this is exactly the same as any other distro (windoze included).

I guess the same.
When i upgraded my PC i was wondering if a 2 cores or a 4 cores would be a good idea.
2 cores is enough as i rarely exhaust the power of both cores.
