For example , Junior 8 on my machines hogs two CPUs on my dual machine, although there is no option to set only one thread in the engine parameters box. Makes it a little unfair (very conveniently for Junior) in engine vs engine natches on a dual machine, So to run a fair match on a dual machine, you must buy the Deep Junior 8 version and change the thread setting to 1 (and the list goes on ...) BTW, Junior 7 does have this issue -- so it was a new "unannounced feature" introduced in Junior 8 ;>)
