Somebody can explain me about 8 threads

for a dual processor should have only 4 threads no :?:

abgrafx3d i see you have a dual processor / 8 threads - You are using more then one computer?

I have a dual G5 2.0ghz and i put always 4 threads.

Thanks

Some people experienced a speed minor increase when using 8 threads, even on physically 2 threaded machines, i myself didn't whitness this effect and run 1 thread on my 1 threaded cpu all the time :f

Here's an animation test - render settings were 10 min/frame or SL 14. Averaged about 9 min/frame.
