Beta patch multi-threading?

[TonyD]

Are there any Core i7 users that have recorded their core usage in CloD with HT enabled, and would you care to share? I have noticed no difference before and after the current beta patch, despite a substantial increase in frame rates. Using the BD track, I recorded frame rates of 27, 62, 6 (avg, max, min) before the patch, and 46, 103, 5 afterwards – nearly double.

Both the graphs below were recorded when flying low over Dover with VSYNC enabled. With the new patch this results in the frame rate almost constantly at the refresh rate limit, but there is no apparent difference in the core loading.

I have installed the MS hotfix that tells the OS I have a HT processor, and wondered what the thread distribution may be on an Intel cpu.
