But, _a_ process can't spread on multiple CPUs... to do this the application need to be specificaly designed to do so. A way to do this is using multi-threads, another one is forking multi-instances. But, with only one instance running an application will use only one CPU. Antonio. -- +-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+ | Antonio S.
