Förändringar v4.00.28 -> v4.09.04 Beta
- NEW BETA SERIES - Version 4.1, now in EARLY beta stage development, offers some great new features. One is to set the default CPU affinity to only physical cores (ignoring logical cores). What this means is you can avoid the 'fake' cores that HyperThreading offers up to the scheduler. This helps performance of some applications, despite the Window CPU Scheduler's awareness of these fake cores as of XP. It simply can not make perfect predictions on how demanding the next time slice will be, so can't allocate the time slices perfectly. In many cases, it is simply better to just disable HyperThreading, as Microsoft themselves recommends in some Server Optimization. See http://www.bitsum.com/pl_when_hyperthreading_hurts.php for more info and references.
- All revisions:
- Addition.GUI: Added ability to select default or current affinity that only includes real cores (no simulated HyperThreaded cores)
- Addition.All: Added new one-click portable edition
- Change.GUI: Change to mechanism that launches the governor (movement in location)

- Fix.Core: Fix to /logfolder command line over-ride of log path in certain cases
- Addition.GUI: Added /showprobalanceconfig command line parameter to invoke ProBalance settings dialog
- Addition.All: Created new Portable Edition, in early beta
- Addition.rcTools: Enhanced abilities to deal with certain specialized strings (and fixes lack of localization in last beta build)
