Jasmin,

Thanks. Sound good, although I thought I remembered that my i3 would 
only launch 2 ATPs at a time even though it has 4 virtual cores.

I was going to look at it again, but it wouldn't matter. (I'm using an 
older quad core CPU now). I saw a comment about trying to get 
information on number of threads and such, so I suppose the appropriate 
people already know about these things.

Thanks,
GB
