Yeh well BOINC is 'niced' I mean DC runs its processes at low priority in windows terminology.
That meant that before starting my program both cores were fully utilized by boinc.
Once starting my program since it has the priority booted one of the BOINC processes off and hence both processes were fighting over the remaining core.
Process manager therefore looked like this..
Core 1 - My prog
Core 2 - Boinc 1 70% Boinc 2 30% etc
