well between the two cores they put out about 295,000 steps in about 3.75 hours, is that good, bad, average?? as far as the large page file goes, after about 5 gigs i noticed it didnt do much until i moved it to a seperate partition on a drive seperate from the operating system.as far as how im running the "-smp flag" i have no idea how to adjust the flags, and how i installed them well i made a folder, then made two folders in that folder, then put a copy of the console in each of the two folder, and then i did my configuring through the client as it was installed. if anyone has any suggestions on which flags to adjust and how, once again they would be greatly appreciated.
