I do understand every word what I am talking about, and frankly can churn out a better automated script to do this on a per PID basis on Windows.
You can do on the fly affinity settings as soon as a particular application class/process is discovered, but you'd need a script in the background to run continuously to achieve that.

I am on Windows. Some of you guys think you are the Crème de la Crème, with the right to preassume right.
btw, i don't need to show my credentials to assert that I am smarter (or pathetic).

On Topic:
Affinity setting may or may not be beneficial for those on quaddies or greater but its absolutely supefluous if you do it on a dual core with current drivers for windows.

Sorry for being argumentative
