    HI Guys

    i am looking into using VM ware to increase the number of threads on some non hyper-threaded CPUs.

    I know this has been mentioned in the threads elsewhere, but i cant find it.

    Can someone please share with me their experiences, successes and failures on this?

    A friend of mine is a pro with this software, but has explained some limitations so was wondering what real life experiences there were within the team.

    Many thanks

    my experience of folding [or doing anything else for that matter] using VMWare or VirtualBox can be summed up in one word... disastrous...
