Poser 7 only divides the work of a render once, at the start of the render.  I don't know for sure but I believe Poser Pro is no different.  When you have the renderer set for two threads, and you have two cores, then the job is split into two tasks that each run in their own thread; when one completes, your processor will be 50% idle.  The remaining work is not divided again, unfortunately.  In your case since you have it set to max number of threads, it makes me think there is some single-threaded task that is taking a long time.  I don't know how rendering in a separate process will affect this, you might try disabling that.
