Finally taking the jump to Four-Core.  All about Hyper-Threading. Though a bit late, this’ll be a work in progress for all my work (in progress).

Thanks again to all the help from tech gurus: C.mo, and Justin Rimando.  Also REL and Film Director B.Badion for the common sense.

The new Intel Xeon “Nehalem” processors support Hyper-Threading, which allows two threads to run simultaneously on each core. So an 8-core Mac Pro presents 16 virtual cores that are recognized by Mac OS X. Performance is enhanced because Hyper-Threading enables the processor to take better advantage of the execution resources available in each core.
