Reassign 2nd CPU Core for Air related processing.

Post by bunny »

My current understanding is that Spring is a single threaded engine, meaning it won't take advantage of multiple CPU cores. It will take too much effort to recode Spring to be multi-threaded.

1 significant weakness for those with lower-end machines is lag during massive buildup of Air units (ie Large fighter screen).

I am requesting to reassign "Air related processing" only; to an available secondary CPU core (therefore avoiding a full Spring recode).
I am not sure if this is a viable approach.

Please flame me as needed.

Get the MT build. It already does something similar, and even more.

Interesting.
Thanks Beherith.
Sorry, I was out of Spring for 1year plus.
Now back :).
