From readme.txt (mprime2414.tar.gz) :

To fully utilize a dual-CPU machine, you must run two copies of
mprime.  Run one copy of mprime as described above.  Run the second
copy of mprime with the -A1 switch.  Make sure your startup scripts
start both executables. 

-An             This is used to run two or more copies of mprime
                from the same directory.  Using this command line argument
                causes mprime to use a different set of filenames for the
                INI files, the results file, the log file, and the spool file.
                Just use a different value of n for each extra copy of
                mprime you start.
