Started by Randy Yates August 18, 2009
I'm noticing the Octave isn't utilizing my quad cores. Any
suggestions on how to get it to do so? 

Fedora 11 / Octave 3.0.5

Compile & link Octave with a multi-threaded BLAS (ATLAS, Intel MKL, ACML). For high-level parallel evaluation of functions, "parcellfun" from the "general" OctaveForge package is probably the easiest to use. Requires 3.2.0+, though.
