Cancellable publishing wizard

A interesting page about cancellable publishing wizard. http://sitecoregadgets.blogspot.com.au/2011/09/advanced-publish-dialog.html

Sitecore and Cores (CPU)

I was recently intrigue to know if Sitecore utilities more than 2 core in the CPU. The answer is yes.

One of thing in Sitecore that deals with CPU Cores is Sitecore jobs. Sitecore jobs (e.g. publishing) are an abstraction of the worker thread pool. This is why jobs in Sitecore will run on any available core. This means Sitecore can run more than 2 core, hence the answer to my question.

Another note about Sitecore jobs, they cannot be canceled programmatically or at least without a substantial risk.
