    It is not as straightforward as it may sound :) We have been working to take advantage of threads and other hardware such as GPU/Video RAM in places where it can make a higher impact. We are prioritizing areas that are slow instead of making a generic change and destabilizing the product. Product stability is the top priority for us and we have been consistently trying to improve it. We want to move with caution and make changes without compromising on the quality. Hope this helps.

    I've just lost an hour that I'll never get back. My MAC has 8 performance cores to process this workload and I just get spinning wheels and incredibly slow response... If it's any consolation - one core is pegged at 100%. This poor use of hardware is effectively limiting the computer to 12% of it's potential.
