Quote - Huh I'm on 64 bit i should try that

  I'm picturing your avatar asking "I can has hyperthreading?"  {:

Well, it depends on whether your processor is hyperthreaded.  Mine is a Core i7.  See how many threads are offered in Poser (edit/general preferences/render).  It should show eight if you have a hyperthreaded quad core processor.  Bear in mind that the hyperthreads only get the leftovers (idle core pathways);  so a hyperthread will only run about half as fast as a dedicated core thread. 

I have both Poser Pro and Poser 8 concurrently installed on Pixie and Galadriel.  Poser 8 has greater effective capacity on a 64bit machine, even though each thread is limited to a maximum 32bit allotment of memory, because the computer can afford to give each thread the maximum 32bit RAM allocation.  On a 32bit machine, the entire computer has only 4Gb at most, so the threads and the housecleaning processes must divide up a limited pie.

I'll render with P8 if it can handle the task;  if the render needs huge amounts of RAM, I'll use Poser Pro, being sure to render in separate process so as to specify the 64bit render engine.
  Poser Pro has both a 32bit and a 64bit render engine;  if you click the little camera-shaped "render" button, it will by default use the 32bit renderer.
