Hi,

A while back I have installed smcFanControl on my mbp, and I use it to monitor the temp. Recetnly, I've noticed some odd behavior -- when running matlab at full load, the temperature (as reported by smcFanControl) reaches 70-75 celsius, but the fans remain at a low rpm (unless I change it manually). When I use parallels, however, the fans increase the rpm to 4000 even though the temperature is just, say, 63C.

Does any possible explanation come to your mind?
