#3DS&Pentium
According to an article I read in last month's Computer Shopper, dos
and any dos based program will benifit from the speed of multiply
processors, but there is a point of deminishing returns. For the type
of archictecture to use multiply processors under dos, their is one
"main" cpu that hands out the tasks to each other cpu but at a cost
of using up part of the main cpu to a point were the system can
actually slow down. Where that point is, is the question? But I
assume one would run out of money before getting to that point.
If your interested in a more depth and precise explanation do some
research in either Sept. or August's issue of Computer Shopper. I
just don't have the room to keep those huge mag.s around.
