This video shows the difference between using one core and four cores in a highly threaded, parallelized application programmed in Visual C# 3.0 (2008).

Sometimes, you don’t want to use all the available cores in a parallel loop. Why? Because you have better plans for the remaining available cores. Thus, you want to specify the concurrency level of a parallel loop. Luckily, Task Parallel Library Beta 1 will allow you to do this using the new ParallelOptions class.
This is what you will learn following the exercises in the book "C# 2008 and 2005 Threaded Programming: Beginner's Guide". You will learn to develop applications that exploit modern multicore CPUs. No tricks, what you see is what you get!
This book teaches C# developers "dancing with the stars: dancing with the multicore CPUs".
