tgptndr: he vast majority of benefit of multi-threading comes when there are large waits involved(think OLTP) and don't normally help the kinds of things that maximize CPU usage ( not the benchmark standard style).

Intel demonstrated a 40% performance increase by enabling HyperThreading, using Maya or some such 3D rendering app.

Database applications should see a nice performance increase as well.
