that will never happen, at the most dolphin could use 3 cores, and even then it wouldnt speed things up much.
Out of curiosity... why is that?
if im not mistaken, when enabling dual core dolphin splits the cpu into one core, and the gpu and dsp into another core. the audio could be split up into a 3rd core, but it wouldnt make much of a difference because the audio doesnt use much processing power.
