Dual Core Processors??? Does Orion 8.5.1 make use of them?

Looking at upgrading our application server and I seem to remember being told that Orion can't make use of a dual core processor. We have two spare boxes, one with a single 3GHz Processor and another with 2x2.8GHz dual core processors. Would installing the dual core be of any benefit to me?

At this time Orion 8.5.1 is only a Single Treaded Program, Orion is only designed for utilizating one Processor. I suggest using the single 3 GHz Server for the Orion Application.

True, but if you are running SQL Server as the database it will take advantage of the other processor. Also, I imagine that if you are running any of the other Solarwinds modules, they will thread independently.
