The chances are that you have a four-core system: so one thread running flat out will only ever be able to use a maximum of 25% of your available CPU resources. To increase that and use further cores, you would have to break your task into 4 "chunks" and move each chunk to a separate thread. See the BackgroundWorker Class[^] for a simple way to do this.

To add to OriginalGriff's answer, I would prefer using Task[^] instead of Backgroundworker. Mainly because using tasks let's you handle more complicated situations.

You can read about the differences for both classes for example from http://blog.stephencleary.com/2013/05/taskrun-vs-backgroundworker-intro.html[^]
