Heh. I thought it might be 8 cores. The reason is that your app is running on one thread and therefore only one core is being used. 13% is about 1/8 of 100 :)

If you can split the process up into 8 separate threads, then it will use the other 7 cores.

Obviously your program is only using one thread and because of this not all cores of your CPU are used.

You have to convert your program into something multithreaded
