Parallel Execution Advantage on Single Core Intel Atom

I've just had 2 weeks vacation in South America. To help me cope with the long flight I bought a Samsung N110 - which has a battery life of over 9 hours. Also I figured the smaller size would be easier to work with whilst sitting in economy class. Irony was I missed my daytime flight, ended up travelling in the evening and so I slept rather than using the Netbook on the plane. After a couple of days of being in Brazil, I got itchy fingers, and decided to test the Samsung N110 to see how it performed on parallel programs. I built and ran my favourite Pi program using the Intel® Compiler that comes with Intel Parallel Studio, and got a performance boost of 1.47.
