For several years following its introduction in late 2006, the SMP client was separate from the other software in FAH. (Our main recommended v6 client only ran on one CPU core). This required a separate download, installation, and configuration. Now that multi-core computers are very common, V7 — the latest generation of our software — can automatically set up SMP during installation as a “slot”. Thus, if your computer contains multiple CPU cores, V7 can install it for you. Please see the V7 FAQ and the Installation Guides for more information.
