Scenario:
A dual processor Unix box (sun or hp).  An application (CAD tool) that was
not specifically optimized for dual processors.  Will the app take advantage
of the dual processors?

This is currently a topic of debate on another mail list - but the people
debating are circuit designers, not computer folk and the thread is laden
with mis-conceptions and half-truths.  I thought if anyone could give a
clear answer, it would be this list.

Thoughts?
