Does Simsolid use both Performance and Efficient cores in Intel 12th generation and 13th generation core processors?

    you can define it by setting the preferences under 'Hardware settings'.

    If the efficient core's are "visible" to SimSolid, it can use them.

    Adriano,

    Thanks.

    Hardware settings does not distinguish between Performance and Efficient cores.

    So if I set the number of cores to use at less than the number of logical cores available which cores are not being used?
