Acrobat X multi threaded cpu support??????????

When the acrobat family will finally support multi-core processors (acrobat, distiller...)?????? It is tragic that adobe dont have any support for multi-core cpu and that this products cost thousends $$$$$!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Only premiere and some photoshop function support multi-core cpu.

I agree. This is mad. It's 2011 and still no multi-core support. I have a requirement to OCR scanned PDF documents. I get about 100,000 PDFs per month. I hate looking at my Resource Manager and only seeing 1 out of 24 cores being used. What a waste!!!!
What are you doing about this adobe? It's 2011 and your software is so far behind in this area. Am I missing something. Is there another tool you have that I just don't know about?

Indesign and multi threaded cpu support??????????

If you are good freelancer you can get money spent on CS back in a month. So I would not call this software expensive. What concerns multi threaded cpu support I believe that programming tools as well as operating systems need to evolve. I am sure that we will get better support in this matter in close future.

Can Acrobat 9 Multi-Thread (use all my cpu cores)

i have several 700+ page thick PDF documents i want to run OCR on. i can batch run them just fine, however i cannot get adobe to use more than one core of my 8 core iMac. so the process takes needlessly long because 87% of my CPU power is just sitting idle. i also cannot do anything with adobe while it is running its OCR program.
is there a way to force acrobat to be multi-threaded?
is there a way to use it for other things while its working?

Nope, no version of Acrobat is a multithreaded application. See the first bullet point: http://livedocs.adobe.com/acrobat_sdk/9.1/Acrobat9_1_HTMLHelp/DevFAQ_Introduction.21.16.ht ml

Acrobat X Multi-Threaded?

If I scan a document that has 100 pages and Adobe has to perform OCR and all of its other processing tasks, where can I tell it to do more than one page at a time??? I have 12 cores and Adobe barely uses 5% while doing this task which takes forever. This can absolutely be done in parallel in separate threads. Is there a setting in Adobe where I can say "Yes, use X cores when doing processor intensive tasks that can easily be run in parallel"

I am not surprised. Thanks for the quick reply.
If anyone from Adobe is listening, this one is a no brainer. Especially for people who archive all of their docs as they come in regularly. Multi-cores have been around for years. I think it would have been appropriate in X to support more threading in at least very basic areas.

Analysis for Office support multi thread?

Does Analysis for Office support multi thread/core? If so, what verison? I tried searching around this site as well as note 1466118 - Hardware & Software requirements for Analysis, edition for MS Office but was unable to find an answer.
I am on an Intel dual cpu with hyper threading turned on so it essentially looks like 4 cores. When I execute an Analysis View, I rarely see the EXCEL.EXE process go above 25% CPU utilization. I have plenty of RAM and hard drive space.

32bit Office 2010

Thanks

I found the following info at:
Excel 2010 Performance: Performance and Limit Improvements
Large Data Sets and 64-bit Excel
The 64-bit version of Excel 2010 is not constrained to 2 GB of RAM like 32-bit applications. Therefore, 64-bit Excel 2010 enables users to create much larger workbooks. 64-bit Windows enables a larger addressable memory capacity, and 64-bit Excel is designed to take advantage of that capacity. For example, users are able to fill more of the grid with data than was possible in previous versions of Excel. As more RAM is added to the computer, Excel uses that additional memory, allows larger and larger workbooks, and scales with the amount of RAM available.
In addition, because 64-bit Excel enables larger data sets, both 32-bit and 64-bit Excel 2010 introduce improvements to common large data set tasks such as entering and filling down data, sorting, filtering, and copying and pasting data. Memory usage is also optimized to be more efficient, in both the 32-bit and 64-bit versions of Excel.
Multi-Core Processing
Additional investments were made to take advantage of multi-core processors and increase performance for routine tasks. Starting in Excel 2010, the following features use multi-core processors: saving a file, opening a file, refreshing a PivotTable (for external data sources, except OLAP and SharePoint), sorting a cell table, sorting a PivotTable, and auto-sizing a column.
For operations that involve reading and loading or writing data, such as opening a file, saving a file or refreshing data, splitting the operation into two processes increases performance speed. The first process gets the data, and the second process loads the data into the appropriate structure in memory or writes the data to a file. In this way, as soon as the first process beings reading a portion of data, the second process can immediately start loading or writing that data, while the first process continues to read the next portion of data. Previously, the first process had to finish reading all the data in a certain section before the second process could load that section of the data into memory or write the data to a file.

Acrobat 9 Pro Extended Distiller - Multi-threaded?

I am using distiller on some fairly large postscript files (also large numbers of small postscript files) and am running into what appears to be machine limitations. I'm running on a 32 bit workstation with 3gb RAM and an intel core duo CPU. Looking at the perf monitor, my processes are not RAM limited and I never seem to get the CPU use above 50% which indicates to me that distiller may not be multi-threaded. Is that the case? If so, is there a way to get distiller to use both CPUs? (or all 4 on a quad core)

I am also facing the same issue. Although you can run multiple instances of Distiller using switch "N"
acrodist.exe -N
But don't know how to distribute the watchedFolders among them.
Even though you can specify the Watch Folders once the instances are up and running.. but in case if you close the instances and start them again.. only one instance will have all the watched folders with it.
So don't know the solution to this, anyone pls help
Thanks in Advance

The CPU utilization is 0% for the other remaining processes when multi threading is used

I am new to AE ,so I am trying to render a project enabling multi threading process the additional processes are present but their utilization is 0% .
I want to juice out every single CPU utiliaztion .
ANy help is greatly appriciated,.
My system specs:
AMD 9690 4.7 Ghz 8 core
32 GB DDR3
C:\256 GB Solid Satte Raid 0
GeForce 780 Ti DDR5 3GB

It is very tempting to try and use all of your system resources and multiprocessing for all your projects, but this is not the way After Effects works. Many third-party plug-ins, many codecs, and many operations do not respond well to multiprocessing. All it takes is one process in your entire thread that is not MP aware to foul the whole thing and give you longer render times.
You are also leaving zero processors for the rest of your computer. Not a wise idea.
After effects renders one frame at a time. One HD frame even with multiple layers of pixel processing just isn't that much data. It does take a while to do the calculations, but expecting to have every one of your CPUs jacked up at 100% to render a single frame of video is expecting an awful lot.
I would suggest that you read up on optimizing After Effects for your computer. Do not expect to be able to utilize 100% of your system resources at all times. That's just not the way processing video on a pixel by pixel basis works.
Just a little FYI, for 99% of my projects in After Effects I have render multiple frames simultaneously turned off. It just doesn't work with most of the things I do. Sorry for the disappointment.

Multi-threaded video decoding problem

I have simple AIR 3.8 application with 2 VideoPlayers:
<s:WindowedApplication xmlns:fx="http://ns.adobe.com/mxml/2009"
xmlns:s="library://ns.adobe.com/flex/spark"
xmlns:mx="library://ns.adobe.com/flex/mx"
applicationComplete="init()"
showStatusBar="false"
>
<fx:Script source="MultiVideoPlayer.as" />
<s:VGroup width="100%" height="100%" >
<s:HGroup width="100%" height="100%" id="row1" >
<s:VideoPlayer width="100%" height="100%" source="assets/2.mp4"/>
<s:VideoPlayer width="100%" height="100%" source="assets/3.mp4"/>
</s:HGroup>
</s:VGroup>
</s:WindowedApplication>
Both videos are H.264 Full HD samples.
I launch application and multi-threaded decoding works fine - all cores are involved and CPU usage is around 70%.
When I replace source of VideoPlayers with exactly same files programmatically - videos are reloading, but they doesn't play smoothly and multi-threaded decoding isn't working anymore - CPU usage drops to 10%.
Is there any way to force use of multi-threaded video decoding when videos are loaded dynamically?

After some hunting I found a Twitter post confirming that StageVideo on AIR 3.2 is not supported on Desktop.
But one of the notable features of Flash Player 11.2 is Multi-threaded video decoding.
Does this mean that standard (non-StageVideo) implementations of Video are now automatically using a separate CPU thread?
If so, this would be a reasonable workaround for smooth video on Desktop.
Here's Adobe's description of the feature...very vague.
Multithreaded video decoding (Windows, Mac OS, and Linux) — The video decoding pipeline is now fully multithreaded. This feature should improve the overall performance on all platforms. Note that this feature is a significant architecture change required for other future improvements.

Multi-Threaded FTP

Multi-Threaded FTP was a huge attraction for me, and one of the features that sold me on upgrading to Dreamweaver CS6. However, I haven't seen any sign of it in the product or any documentation to help me use it. My files keep transferring in the traditional one-at-a-time way.
Is there something I need to do to enable this feature? Has anybody used this feature yet?

Might not help but I saw this in the comments on David Powers' blog
http://foundationphp.com/blog/2012/04/23/my-verdict-on-dreamweaver-cs6/
"Multi-thread FTP is the default in Dreamweaver CS6. You can neither turn it on nor off. It handles a maximum of three transfers simultaneously in either direction (so you can download at the same time as uploading). However, it doesn’t work with Check In/Check Out."
He also has the following comments in the body of the blog entry:
Multichannel FTP
Let’s be honest. In the past, Dreamweaver’s FTP client was a dog. Not any more. It now supports multichannel transfers, and can even download at the same time as uploading. Orange arrows indicate items queued for transfer. When the transfer begins, the arrow turns green. And if you’re transferring a large item, hovering over the filename displays a tooltip of how much of the file has been transferred. With Dreamweaver CS5.5, it took more than 90 minutes to upload a WordPress site on my internet connection. Now, it’s more than ten times faster.
The FTP error messages are also more meaningful. No one is likely to buy Dreamweaver CS6 for its FTP client alone, but this is a major improvement to the program.

I have problem using ObjectOutputStream with Multi-Thread

I am writing a network rpg game for the project.
Because it is a network game, so i use thread to support multi-user.
When i using the string to store the command, and send to the server,
it still can work. You can downlod at http://ivebug.tripod.com/new-string.zip
(You cannot click the link, you must use [save target as] to save the file)
1. First compile the files then "java ChatServer",
2. Then you can execute "java ChatClient".
3. Input the name for username in the textfield and then press 'login button'.
4. A small square appear in the up-left corner.
5. Then you can click in the black panel to move the square.
6. If you want more than one square can be move, go step 2 to step 5 again.
It seems everthing is work, but i want more extention for future.
So i change to use object to encapsulate the command.
However, it can't work. It stops working after create the socket and
it can can't run to the line to create an ObjectInputStream and ObjectOutputStream. I don't know why. Who can tell me.
The program using object at http://ivebug.tripod.com/new-object.zip
(You cannot click the link, you must use [save target as] to save the file)

Thank you for solve my problem.
Now, i can send the object though the socket, however new problem occurs.
The problem is that after i sent the 'login' object to server,
the client lost the connection.
The program has lost connection problem : http://ivebug.tripod.com/new-lost.zip

Multi-Thread application and common data

I try to make a multi-Thread application. All the Threads will update some common data.
How could I access the variable �VALUE� with the Thread in the following code:
public class Demo {
private static long VALUE;
public Demo(long SvId) {
VALUE = 0;
public static class makeThread extends Thread {
public void run() {
VALUE++;
public static long getVALUE() {
return VALUE;
The goal is to get the �VALUE� updated by the Thread with �getVALUE()�
Thanks for your reply
Benoit

That code is so wrong in so many ways......
I know you're just experimenting here, learning what can and can't be done with Threads, but bad habits start early, and get harder to kick as time goes on. I am going to give a little explanation here about what's wrong, and what's right.. If you're going to do anything serious though, please, read some books, and don't pick up bad habits.
Alright, The "answer" code. You don't use Thread.sleep() to wait for Threads to finish. That's just silly, use the join() method. It blocks until the threads execution is done. So if you have a whole bunch of threads in an array, and you want to start them up, and then do something once they finish. Do this.
for(int k=0; k<threads.length; k++) {
threads[k].start();
for(int k=0; k<threads.length; k++) {
threads[k].join();
System.out.println("All Threads Done");Now that's the simple problem. No tears there.
On to the java memory model. Here where the eye water starts flowing. The program you have written is not guarenteed to do what you expect it to do, that is, increment VALUE some amount of time and then print it out. The program is not "Thread Safe".
Problem 1) - Atomic Operations and Synchronization
Incrementing a 'long' is not an atomic operation via the JVM spec, icrementing an int is, so if you change the type of VALUE to an int you don't have to worry about corruption here. If a long is required, or any method with more then one operation that must complete without another thread entering. Then you must learn how to use the synchronized keyword.
Problem 2) - Visiblity
To get at this problem you have to understand low level computing terms. The variable VALUE will NOT be written out to main memory every time you increment it. It will be stored in the CPUs cache. If you have more then one CPU, and different CPUs get those threads you are starting up, one CPU won't know what the other is doing. You get memory overwrites, and nothing you expect. If you solve problem 1 by using a synchronized block, you also solve problem 2, because updating a variable under a lock will cause full visiblity of the change. However, there is another keyword in java.. "volatile".. A field modified with this keyword will always have it's changes visible.
This is a very short explaination, barely scratching the surface. I won't even go into performance issues here. If you want to know more. Here's the resources.

Is a Trigger Multi Thread?

I’m trying to execute a SELECT statement WHERE status = X to make some operations when I insert a row in my Table.
If there is another insert until is execute the firs insert, the Trigger is executed in other Thread or waits until the first ended?
Is a Trigger Multi Thread?
If is multi thread, is possible to make it in single thread or wait until the first one end?

Each session will execute its own copy of the trigger.
To single thread access to rows within a table look at the select for update statement.
When designing transactions give thought to Oracle's read consistency model: readers will not wait on updaters to see the row contents.
But by selecting for update you will cause other sessions that want to update the same selected row as taken by the first session to wait for the first session to commit or rollback before the second session performs its update.
If you need to single thread access to the entire table you could be designing an applciation that will not scale to support multiple session access.

Multi-threaded agent not being used

Solaris 9, Oracle 9.2.0.1
The docs say the multi-threaded agent avoids processes starting every time a user opens a database connection. Except it doesn't seem to.
I've started up the agent;
ps -ef |grep hsodbc
oracle 6193 1 0 14:21:07 ? 0:00 hsodbcMYSQL_R -mt
But, when I establish 2 user connections across a database link, I see this;
ps -ef |grep hsodbc
oracle 6201 1 0 14:21:40 ? 0:00 hsodbcMYSQL_R (LOCAL=NO)
oracle 6216 1 1 14:23:08 ? 0:00 hsodbcMYSQL_L (LOCAL=NO)
oracle 6193 1 0 14:21:07 ? 0:00 hsodbcMYSQL_R -mt
The multi-threaded agent isn't picking up and processing the connections as I would expect. Processes are being spawned in exactly the same way as when the mt agent is not running.
I have checked the listener logs and the agent is registering ok at startup [and every 10 secs too!!!].
Can anyone shed any light on why I am not seeing the benefits of the mt agent?
TIA

Multi-Instrument + Multi-Thread problem found

Right.....I have done a lot of research on why logic was not multi-threading correctly and have narrowed it down to one problem...using Kontakt as a multi instrument.
My Mac is a 2 x 2.26 GHz Quad-Core Intel Xeon. This means that it is capable of distributing work loads over the multiple cores of the CPU to prevent core audio overloads from happening.
If I run any plug ins in stereo or mono mode, the CPU acts as it should; I will load up a program, add processing and when the load is becoming a strain for the CPU, I use a bus send and work on that, then the workload is redistributed across more of the cores by logic, allowing me to continue working.
However, I need to use Kontakt as a multi instrument. I usually have 3 instances of Kontakt open and on each one of these, I usually have a minimum of 10 outputs being sent to the aux channels of logic. Therefore using Kontakt as a stereo instrument is not an option, as I would have to open around 30 instances!
Here is the problem; say for example, in Kontakt I send a kick drum out of Kontakt into AUX 3 + 4. The AUX channel in logic will being to show output. I can now EQ this single kick drum seperate from any other sound in logic.
If I began to add processor heavy plug ins to this AUX output, rather than share the workload across the cores as it should and does with stereo instruments, logic now only uses a single core and it will core audio overload very quickly.
As I said, this only happens when I set up Kontakt as a multi instrument. The main problem is when I begin to have many different outputs from my 3 instances of Kontakt, as by this stage, many different sounds will have processing. All 3 multi instruments and their processing are then controlled by the single processor and the other 7 are almost inactive! It therefore becomes impossible to use Kontakt and I have to switch to stereo instances. This happens for all multi-instruments not just Kontakt.
I have just purchased Kontakt 4, I am upgrading to OSX 10.6 (Snow Leopard) and am updating Logic to v9.1. (From v9.0) Will this help at all? Is there an answer to this problem or will I just have to open 30 stereo and mono instances of Kontakt to continue working!
I have included a link to a ZIP file with two photos of the problem. In the photo named MASSIVE. I have one instance of massive running as a stereo instrument. It is sent to a BUS where I applied the WAVES L316 Limiter. I did this multiple times and if you can see on the system performance (Top right) Logic is sharing the workload over the processors as it should.
In the second picture named KONTAKT MULTI - I have done the same thing, but I have opened Kontakt as a multi instrument, sent a kick drum to AUX 2 and then forwarded this to a send where I applied the same WAVES L316. You can see on the system performance meter (Top Right) that Logic now does not re-distribute the workload, it is using one core and anymore plug ins applied to the AUX or bus channels relating to Kontakt will now make it core audio over load, even though now I am using far less processing.
PHOTOS: http://www.sendspace.com/file/og8a94

Ditto
Using Pro 8 Studio, I had this problem after installing Snow Leopard.
Invested £159 in Pro 9 update, same problem.
This has stopped most of my work since my external WK4 sounds are superior to the included software sounds.
As suggested, will now report since since it obviously seems to be a general problem.
