I'm not satisfied with the SW 2007 performance, because use only 2 of 4
processor in quad configuration. In that sense is the reason to build
supercomputer like microwulf?

Not sure about SolidWorks 2008 but I read that V10 of IronCAD will:

http://www.upfrontezine.com/current.htm

"IronCAD v10 loads very large drawing files visually. Mr O'Conner
opened for me a 4,000-part model in a couple of seconds; in the
background, IronCAD keeps loading the model data, whose progress is
shown by a bar graph on the status bar. Multithreading is used on
multi-processor computers for loading models and performing renderings
in the background."

"After IronCAD v10s ship in late October, the company will work on
Vista and 64-bit versions. As several other CAD vendors have found,
Microsoft's poor support for OpenGL means that IronCAD needs time to
be adapted for the proprietary Direct3D graphics system promoted in
Vista."
