The MB is run one at a time.

2 at a time would give a nice boost to your output.

It maybe a Linux quirk stopping him from doing that Grant. ;-)

Cheers.

Petri's been rolling his own, and feeding me tasty tidbits for me to generalise into the next release :-D. There's the tradeoff we'll have to figure a way to analyse and master, being the one task balls to the wall, versus multiple doing latency hiding. Eacch will have benefits depending on the systems and GPU(s) involved, so probably the new breed of tools to figure out the best way to run is where my focus will end up shifting.

That's good to know and I certainly appreciate the work you fellows do. :-)
