In some cases, the increase in speed may be very limited. Although it depends on a case by case basis the following simple rules may be used to determine the experted increase in execution speed:
- execution time of an individual module <= 1 sec: expected increase < 20%
- execution time of an individual module > 1 sec < 10: expected increase between 20 and 50%
- execution time of an individual module > 10 sec: expected increase > 50 % and < 100 %
The percentage given in the list above should be scaled using the amount of cores used. The 100% in the example above is a two-fold increase using two cores.
