Heres my findings - (I have an Intel(R) Core(TM) i5-2410M Laptop processor btw @ 3ghz)
1. Both swtor.exe processes running on all 4 cores = High FPS but the game "chops" in certain places, normally large open areas.
2. Both swtor.exe processes running on Core 0 only = High FPS and very smooth gameplay
3. One swtor.exe running on core 0, the other on core 1 = High FPS but the game "chops" in certain places, normally large open areas.
4. One swtor.exe running on core 0, the other on core 2 = High FPS and very smooth gameplay, but sound stutter
5. One swtor.exe running on core 0, the other on core 3 = High FPS and very smooth gameplay, but sound stutter
6. Both swtor.exe processes running on Core 3 only = High FPS and very smooth gameplay
