Sorry for the delay. There may be some path problems with the examples, since I originally created them in the same directory as ParallelFox.vcx, then moved them to a separate directory. Until I get that sorted out, please try moving the examples to the same folder as ParallelFox.vcx, and see what results you get.

With 2 CPUs, the "after" results should be faster than one CPU. I think that should also be true of hyperthreading, but I'm not positive about that. The goal of the "Steps" example is to show you what can and cannot be running in parallel, not to cut the time in half. You ought to see more of an improvement in the other examples.

Thanks.
