Because of this kind of posts we abandonned RGCC originally.
This is very unpolite, how to kick out Ritter from CCC so that he shuts up?

Note that you are also a very naive person. Everyone can multiple
node count by 2 in a program and show that doubled number on the
screen. Starting 2 programs on a dual machine is dead easy.

so faking to be parallel is like 2 minutes of work for *any* programmer.

So your 'show me' posting here is one of the most stupid in the world
from practical viewpoint. Apart from that it is rude and impolite!

Where in past Christophe had good reasons to not get SMP, obviously
now he has. If professional people like Christophe sees a need to get
something done, then ASSUME it gets done.

If he posts here he has a parallel version i have no reason to
doubt him.

Why be so tough on him then?

Everyone knows the real reason tiger is not in BGN qualification has
nothing to do with being SMP of tiger. It's an excuse.

I didn't get an answer either, though i can run on way more as 2
processors. Real soon over the network.

I don't doubt *every* programmer here can also run easily over the
network. I doubt whether one gets a speedup out of it though, just like
i doubt whether i will get a speedup out of it.

That's however a question which you will never raise.

You tell one of the nicest personalities in the world to shut up instead!
