CPU Thrashing

When I was running 32-Bit Sierra Chart, I noticed a lot of CPU thrashing. One of my four cores was constantly hitting the 25% level while others were not being used. I recently upgraded to 64-Bit Sierra Chart and was hoping it would use more then one core, but I'm not sure it is. Should it be?

Thanks,

Roy

Actually, maybe I'm wrong. It looks like all four cores are being used now. Can you give me a definitive answer as to whether the 64 bit version makes better use of multi-core cpus or not?

The 64-bit version is not going to make use of more CPU cores.
