Multiprocessor system VS one processor system

[Brian D.Moffet]

Curious,


Hmm, if that's true, then I'll have to check and see what is going on.  
I have a program which gains about 30 percent increase in speed by 
turning on threads with a dual-CPU FreeBSD 4.8 system.  It's a simple 
mandelbrot generator, with two threads, one starting at the beginning 
going forward, and one starting at the end and going backward.
