    I'm curious to know what the performance is like with and without hyperthreading.
    Wonder if his odd affinity settings have something to do with this. ?

    Not using HT is about the same as using HT, with HT being somewhat faster.
    Buy one and let us know how you make out

    DP - for example with 4 cores
    1 uses CPU0
    2 uses CPU1
    3 uses CPU0 and CPU1
    4 uses CPU2
    5 uses CPU0 and CPU2
    6 uses CPU1 and CPU2
    7 uses CPU0, CPU1, and CPU2
    8 uses CPU3
    9 uses CPU0 and CPU3
    10 uses CPU0, CPU1, CPU2, CPU3


    Convert the number to hex and reverse it to see which CPUs are to be used.

    Ah ok now I understand, that info is exactly what I was looking for. Wow, Vista/XP64 is more advanced than I thought. I didn't realize you could set the affinity for groups of processors as well as just 1 or all. Interesting.

    Thanks for the info.
    Jeff.

    Affinity works that way in Windows 7 as well.

    The taskbar icon is all messed up in W7.
    It has no text when you click on it.
    GUI monitor seems to work if you can get it up.

    The script works great IB, thanks for posting it. I'm currently have an llrnet.exe that is 32bit and says:

    LLR network client 0.9b7 (based on LLR version 3.5.0).

    Is that the latest version? Is there a win64 version anywhere?

    Jeff.
