Understanding Multithreading

Hey, this thread is really helpful. thanks.

A follow up question: When you switch rackspaces, does GP make use of seperate cores?

I totally understand the need to keep everything on a single processor to allow total routing flexibility within a patch. However, as I understand it, when you switch between two racks, GP loads both so that it can crossfade between the two for a smooth transition. If that’s all running on one core, the potential for overload at the point of switching could be high, but if each rack is using a seperate core, it should be no higher than while running either of the individual racks. Would be awesome to know how GP is handling stuff in that instance.
