On an N-processor system, you can run N-instances of mcad simultaneously
without a loss of performance. This is useful for parametric studies where
you will have a lot of runs. However, with only one mcad instance you will
not get any speed advantage. With some programming effort, one could
develop a parallel processing dll that will invoke multi-processors in a
networked cluster or multi-CPU SMP environment. This would be one way to
get true multi-cpu performance speedup for a single mcad problem.
