I just found out about this couple of days ago but I didnt post it here because of the BETA release....and now since its been delayed...I thought I would inform you guys about this....this is for people using multi-core systems and Vista
I dont know about XP but in Vista if you go into task manager and right click on TG2 process or any other process......you get an option called
"Set Affinity"
. This feature allows you choose, on which core that particular process should handled. So if you have quad core machine and you are doing 4 crop renders....you can associate each crop render to each core instead of all 4 cores rendering all crop renders....
I think this way its more efficient and probably will save you some render time.

Yeah, I knew about this....
It dosent make any use to me, cause I do not understand cropping properly, and therefore never use it

Yes, you can do it in XP, though I only have two and haven't tried it.
So this is Disney World. Can we live here?
