Primarily because threading is hard. Code that is not written to take
advantage of multiple processors is reasonably hard
Hi all
Why doesn't Calc (at least under Windows...) use all available cores and
threads to speed up operations?
Opening a heavy (200k lines x 26 cols) xlsx file takes 6 seconds in a Intel
Core i5 (2 cores, 4 threads) using MS Office 2010. I can see the first 3
threads briefly going up to 70% load
