RE: Hyper-Threading
I see no advantage when running R17. (even 64 bit) There is no mirrored useage in my task manager. So unless there's some variable or option that I haven't discovered, we're still waiting.
Great for multi-session, though. I can run 3 heavy sessions with no problem at all on AMD dual processor hardware.

RE: Hyper-Threading
Are you running dual core or dual proc? If so, is one or both of them running at 50%?
I really don't know if hyper-threading will slow you down, but I'm pretty certain that it isn't helping you. In my humble opinion, if it isn't helping, then...

RE: Hyper-Threading
It may not be a benefit directly to CATIA, but if you are regularly waiting on CATIA to process operations, hyper-threading should increase the responsiveness of the computer so you can do other things while you wait (or another session of CATIA). You can always run your own tests (as hyper-threading is usually a simple option in BIOS to turn on/off) and see exactly how much it is helping you or not.
