There is no advantage to running multiple ray traces simultaneously in X4. Ray tracing is a highly parallel task that takes advantage of all the cores most of the time.
Any advantage that you might have during the few times that the ray tracer is not taking full advantage of all the cores would probably be lost in task switching overhead.Doug Park
