7.6 Simultaneous Multiprocessing
With RTR Version 2, threaded applications could use Symmetric Multiprocessing
(SMP) effectively. In RTR Version 3, SMP will not provide the performance
advantages of RTR Version 2. The single control process of RTRACP in RTR
Version 3 does not take advantage of an SMP configuration. Similarly, because
with RTR Version 3 there is only a single command server, you cannot gain
advantages associated with the ability in RTR Version 2 to run command servers
on different processors. However, applications can run multiple concurrent
servers as in RTR Version 2.
