I just built a brand new computer with an AMD 64 X2 4800+ dual-core processor. In the task manager it looks like blender is only utilizing one core. I was under the assumption it supports multi-threading. If it doesn’t, then is there a plan to have support for it?
wrong place for this post - go to support topic located here
and click “threads” in the render panel
lol, reminds me of a moderator on another forum I used to go to. He would post a button that logged the person out of the board. 
Anyway cerin, rendering is multi-threading via what NodeRanger said, but the rest of the program isn’t.
