Can anyone on a Mac tell me if Poser Pro is using multithreading to calculate the Dynamic Cloth and Hair simulations?

Right now I use Poser 7 and I know that it does only use one of my eight cores to calculate the simulations. Is this improved in Poser Pro?
I render in Vue, so this is the only reason I would upgrade to Poser Pro.

Thanx!

P7P doesn't use multithreading anywhere except in the Firefly renderer.
In P7P the renderer is improved, the normal program is unchanged.

Oh well, at least I can keep doing other things while Poser is busy... ;) 

Thanks for your reply!
