-1 on "multicore" - multiprocess or multiprocessing are a fine names. cores are irrelevant.

Thanks you for saying that. I'm constantly amazed how people think multi-core systems are a new thing, conceptually, when they are really just a different packaging for multi-processor systems (perhaps with NUMA consequences that the operating system, but not application, needs to deal with).

So -1 on "multicore" from me as well, despise marketing (typo intentional :-)
