Hi!

I've just installed PovWin v3.1e on one of my Dual Celery mashiened to
compare the spped increase from one to two CPUs.
There was [b]NONE[/b]!!!

Is the second cpu used by default or do I have to set an option in POV to
enable rendering on it?
BTW:
Does somebody know if a PVM (parallel virtual mashiene) version of POVray
for Win32 exists?

The standard distribution of POV does not support SMP.
