Under consideration at Schreck is at the moment a general upgrade, for which one is a switch to new os/hardware. Question pondering: are there benefits for under Linux with the AMD64-dualcore? Have there been any experience with this?
Quite curious...

pd is single-threaded and won't benefit from a second processor. but http://grh.mur.at/software/threadlib.html could be a way to make use of a second/third/fourth processor.

But two pd's could benefit from a second processor, of course.
And then you can connect them with [netsend], OSC, or various other networking protocols.
