I'm not chooseing the software based solely on its multi-threaded capabilities, but that is a very important option. Thats why they usually charge extra for that capability. The goal of my search was to find a great FEA app to suit my purpose, which is large static models used in dragline...
Thanks for all of your help. Most computers run on multiple CPUs now, so why not use an app that allows you to exponetially increase your post processing power. MSC Nastran has solvers for parallel and multithreaded processing that allows users to take full advantage of their multi-core systems...
Okay thanks, I'll check into that. I did find out that Abaqus is multitreaded, but im not sure if they charge you more for it or not. I'm not sure what FEA software to use. It's so nebulus!

Is there an efficient and cost effective a Multi-treaded or Multi-CPU Post processing FEA software package available? I need something that will utilize all of my 8 core processors, to speed things up?
