Why sometimes MultiCharts only uses one single core for optimization?
Here is my config:
CPU: i7-8700k
RAM: 16G
OS: win 10
MC version: 11.0
My computer has 6 cores. In most of the time, it runs with 6 cores for optimization. but sometimes it runs with one single core.
Can I turn on multi cores with any function, or does it have any setting to turn multi cores parallelization on?
Thank you for your answer.

I cannot find this regstry in Windows 10.
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\TS Support\Power Language\StudyRunner
Try to search this first, then look for the rest in the search results.

For my case, i7-8700k has 6 cores. What will be better for NumberOfThreadsOnOptimization?
Should I set it to be 6, which is equal to the real core? or be 12, the logical core.
I set it to be 6 , but my computer seems to run slower than ever...
When I run optimization with registry key value 6, the cpu usage is up to 50%.
However, before I tune the registry key value, sometimes the CPU usage can be up to 90%-.
Or should I delete the registry setting?

I don't know why. After I delete the registry key value, my optimization run faster than when I run it with the NumberOfThreadsOnOptimization = 6.
