You can already get off-the-shelf hardware with 64 threads per die. If screen real-estate is a concern, we can switch the scale from 100 to 1, so 1.0 is full tilt on one thread, etc., and use "%.5g", which should work for up to 99999 threads (9999900%) DES --=20 Dag-Erling Sm=C3=B8rgrav - des@des.no
