Answer:

Perl is a single threaded application and doesn't support SMP. Use 4 perl
processes to utilize all CPU's (Quad way box) or just use rewrite the
application in another language that supports SMP to do the work, which I
might add is more than likely at this stage.

Much appreciation goes to,

Cheers!,
David.
