Hello,

does foldit support multicore cpus? my quadcore is always running on one core only, how can i improve that?
My system is Ubuntu 10.04, Intel Q8300, 6gb RAM.

thanks for any suggestions,

You can run more than one instance at once and work on few proteins at same time :D
Currently windows client uses tops 3 threads (mostly 2 - one for gui second for game, sometimes are 2 for game), when minimized is mostly one. Not sure but linux should be likewise.

I like to run 3 clients on my quadcore on lubuntu, leaves a bit of headspace for doing other things.
