Now I can manually right click and set affinity for each one. One instance of it for each tool generating. So, Every time we generate a tool a process called MS.exe shows up in the process manager. Now generating 1 tool puts 4 cores at %70 and 2 tools will get them all at %100 making the computer lock up until it's done. This is not-so-great on other computers with 4 cores where we used to generate 2 tools at a time and that would max out 2 cores and leave 2 cores for us to be able to use other software/ do other things inside camworks while waiting. This is great for the computers we have that have 32+ cores because before it would max out at 10 toolpaths. With 2015 it seems to be multi threading (not sure if that's the correct term)and spreading the load across all cores.
you could even open the task manager and watch it happen. if we did 2 at the same time, one toolpath would use one core, the other would use another, and so on. With 2014 every time we generated a toolpath it would make 1 core do that tool. What the program does is help us program where our CNC machine's tools are going (CAD/CAM software that's integrated into solidworks). I'm using a program called Camworks and my company just upgraded to the new 2015 version. Not sure if this is possible since I cannot find any good info searching online, but if anyone has any suggestions they would be greatly appreciated.
