Hmmm initially I was going to say yes, but I recall some bug about separate processes, but I can't recall is it was in vanilla P7, or sr1 P7.

If memory serves, separate processes just allows you to get back into P7 to fiddle around while it renders in the background in it's new process, and there is no advantage of doing that for dual core rendering.

Way too many people take way too many things way too seriously.
