Hi Ananth,
Is there any isses with wine on Dual processor machines ( Intel Xeon processor ) w.r.t multi threaded programming?
There can be, if there is a lot of inter-thread synchronization. Only if each thread is CPU-bound are you likely to see any improvement in performance as you move to multiple threads. If there is a lot of inter-thread synchronization, you'll be slowed down by calls into wineserver, and short of some hack this isn't going to change anytime soon.
Regarding your other email, how do you know it's wine that's causing the difference in speed between the two machines? The machines are different. Different machines perform differently on different applications.
Anyway, to investigate both of these problems, consider using oprofile. It was covered in wwn here: http://www.winehq.com/?issue=249#oprofile%20&%20Wine
