Hello,
I was long out, can I nowdays just get a povray (which version?) and run it
with like --smp or -j 2 option to run in 2 threads and utilize dualcore
fully?

Off topic question: what about MegaPOV in that matter?

Conveniently enough, I've created the Megapov XRS (unofficial unofficial
version of POV-Ray :-))

Render faster than light!
