DUAL PROCESSORS multiple cores and auto interactive routing

Question

My question is, when considering a new computer, would it benefit auto-routing algorithms more to have multiple cores of a given speed, or fewer cores of a higher speed? Does Allegro PCB design editor auto-routing take advantage of multiple CPU cores?

techiecs · Answer

If we talk about multiple CPU cores improve Allegro PCB Editor application performance, then Performance can benefit through multi-core, multi-CPU or HyperThreading configurations. For physical design (brd or mcm), four processing units is recommended but for dense designs or complex constraint rules more than four units will improve performance. For DRC, high-end SI Analysis tools and GRE, eight or more processing units is recommended.
