Is there some reason S@H isn't sharing resources?


They don't share, they alternate.

Indeed, every hour or so?

Also note that for most PC CPUs, running one task is often better than letting two tasks run 'simultaneously' that use small CPU time slices.

(And Intel's HT is a special half-way case depending on what view is taken (:-))
