I have no idea how to have "one" program use the two CPUs....

Why don't you just split the search space into two and assign one half to each CPU.


Say you wanted to search Lp from 10 to 20uH and k from 0.1 to 0.4.

Have one copy of ScanTesla search Lp from 10-20uH, k from 0.1 to 0.2..
Have the other search Lp from 10-20uH, k from 0.20001 to 0.4

and run one on each CPU. I'm sure it would be easy to write a script to do this and combine the output, for two CPUs or indeed for any number of CPUs that need not even be in the same machine. "Tesla@Home" here we come ;))))))
