    Civ 5 Resource Use

    I wonder has anyone else while waiting for a longterm game turn to pass noticed that the game uses next to no resources on a system? I have a quad core i7 and the most I've seen monitoring cpu is about 23% and memory use in the 30 percentile range.. is there anyway to force it use more cpu/memory to speed the turns up? I like to play the huge map size games but with several minutes between turns at that point it's just not practical

    My Athlon II X4 3.0ghz is running it right now, very quickly and utilizing each core at least 40% but up to 80% and usually around 55% for all four cores... does not change even I stream netflix full screen on the other monitor though.
