Does Asterisk Support Multiple Cores

Env:
Centos 7
Asterisk 17

I am just wondering if Asterisk supports Multiple Cores?

Asterisk is multi-threaded, so it will take advantage of multiple cores in one processor in the same way as it will take advantage of multiple processors.

Asterisk doesn’t go out of its way to maximise the benefits resulting from this, i.e. it doesn’t deliberately vectorise, or otherwise parellise, operations, but there is a lot of naturally asynchronous operation.

I’m assuming you mean take advantage of, because most programs will not fail when run on a multi-core system (most now are multi-core).

Thanks for the answer, I really appreciate it.
