are there other changes to your first 32bit compiles?

Which compile should I use for 32bit 1CPU tests (the first ones or the smp version with 1CPU ?)
Hi Werner,

You can use latest 32-bit MP version. MP is not enabled in the 'ZCT.ini' by default.

Code: Select all

# Use 4 processors
#mp 2

Remove hash in front to enable MP.

Jim.
That's not right, MP builds use the max number of processors by default. So you'd want "mp 1" there instead of nothing.

Yes, sorry. On my single-cpu system ZCT uses 4 threads if mp command is ignored. It was playing so smoothly I assumed it was using one thread and didn't bother to check.
