How many CPU cores does/will Octane use

[Rik]

One for the developers I think...

I believe that Octane only uses 4 cores so getting a multicore monster wouldn't help with compilation.

Do you have any plans to increase the number of cores Octane uses or is it likely to stay at 4?

If you're sticking with 4 cores then I guess the important spec for a processor would be it's quad core performance rather than single or multiple core?

Planning a long overdue system upgrade (fed up of waiting for scene evaluation)

PS I know the colouring in is done on the GPUs but the bottleneck for me is the scene evaluation stage.

PSS feel free to move this to the relevant forum, thanks
