Moved/removed properties

So in upgrading to V7, I've noticed that the EffectCaching, MultiCoreCountLimit, MultiCoreProcessing, and UseThreadPool properties on the RenderOptionsCommon class have been removed for the WPF version.

I had a few questions I was hoping to get answered:
  • Were these properties just removed entirely or is there another way to control them?
  • What was the rationale behind these changes?

Hi,

EffectCaching was removed because we dropped Win XP support. It was mostly useful there.

MultiCoreCountLimit, MultiCoreProcessing, and UseThreadPool were removed because multi-core computation was totally redesigned in v.7. With new design, in general LC 7 works faster than 6, and 7.1 will work even yet faster.
