title: Does Visual Studio 2010 benefit from quad core vs dual core machines? Is compilation multithreaded?
body: <p>I have a Windows XP machine with a dual core 3.6G CPU and 4megs. I am not very happy with the performance. I was wondering if compilation in VS 2010 is multithreaded and does VS 2010 benefit from switching from dual to quad core machine?</p>
