Dual/Multi Core Support for Visual Studio 2005/2008
January 20th, 2010 Category: GeneralIt’s a shame, but Microsoft Visual Studio 2005/2008 doesn’t support compiling several .c / .cpp files in parallel when working with a dual/multi core CPU. Especially when e.g. compiling on a Intel Core i7 with quad core and hyper threading this is really annoying. In Visual Studio 2010 this will be supported… But many many people want to work with Visual Studio 2005/2008 and get advantage of their powerful multi core CPU’s.
For this reason you can get the MPCL Plugin, it enables support for compiling several files in parallel on all your cores. It’s not for free but the price is fair.
