I guess I am only asking is what services (if any) need to be on to take advantage of the dual core processor(s), as I mostly turn off all services that I don't need after a install and might have turned something off (like cpuspeed, if needed) that might need on to help the system run faster/better. <div class="Ih2E3d"> > P.S.

Just trying to clarify what services are needed IF any for cpus to work faster/better. P.S. Not having any problems or slowness really on anything, just asking in general is all. </blockquote></div> As far as I know non of "desktop" services in Fedora (cpuspeed included) need any type of special configuration when used on dual core CPUs. - Gilboa
