Hi all

I finally got to crank up carrara with my new computer.  Im happy to report that, while rendering...it flat kicks tail, using all processors.

However, it does not use all when doing preview renders (marquee with the camera)
It also does not appear to use them when calculating for particles.  To me, both of these should be done as it'd dramatically increase speed.  Particles, at least...should be passed between cpu's for location (as it seems to do this calculation before beginning rendering) and when dealing with a lot of particles, this could really help.

all in all, Im still very happy with the render working with them.
