How is Tracktion 4 multicore performance?

How does it scale across multiple CPU cores? How does it compare to other DAWs like Reaper?

Though I don't have projects set up to specifically compare CPU usage/multi-core efficiency between Tracktion and Reaper, the Tracktion 4 projects I'm testing see very even distribution across all 4 cores on my system. At 128 samples I have projects using over 50% CPU spread evenly with no pops or problems. (In Tracktion 3 I usually went with 3 cores as enabling all four seemed to inevitably invite pops, especially with anything under 256 samples.)

Seems good so far, pretty comparable to Reaper. (And multi-cpu efficiency has always been Reaper's main positive for me.)

yes! multi core support seems way more stable in T4

Thanks for the responses.
