Feature request - built-in CPU affinity choice

[Deciheximal]

My apologies if this is the wrong thread to put this in, I wasn't sure if here or in Beta Clients would be more appropriate.

I'd like to request a GUI options menu to always force SB to run on one particular cpu. Prime 95 has this; you just specify which CPU you want to run on, and you don't have to touch a command line.

If you're on windows 2000/XP/Vista, etc., you can also set this using the Windows Task Manager, right-click on the sb.exe process, and "Set Affinity..."

Obviously not as easy, but still doesn't require a commandline.

That's interesting. Why would you want to do that? Is it more efficient?
