I've a dual xeon rig - in my sig. In windows how can i set the affinity so that process x is running on the physical processor 1, and process y is running on phyiscal processor 2.

The set affinity option has cpu 0, 1, 2, 3

It would make sense to me that cpu 0,1 would be physical cpu 1 (and is logical hyperthreading cpu) and CPU 2,3 would be physical cpu 2.

Is this correct? Its pretty hard to tell since all four cpu graphics are jumping all over the place as far as utilization goes. What im trying to do is encode videos, and the tool im using is not optimized for dual cpus. So i have a batch file, two actually. to convert videos from one format to another.
