Depends on the OS runnning and also the type of applications to be run on the system.
I think on lighter processor loading, the single processor will perform better than a multicore due to the management software required for multi cores. However, when the processor load is increased, which by the way has always been the case in the past, then the multi core is in a class of it's own. This is of course assuming that the software was written correctly to utilise multicore bandwidth effectively. JPT

Is single core processor will support multi threaded program?
Of course it will run. But it will not be making full utilization of the multi-core architecture. In that aspect, single-core processors with more processing power are sometimes better suited to run single threaded application than multi-core processors with less processing power.
What refers to placing two processors on a single processor chip or die?
Multi-core
What does multi-core allow?
Multi-tasking! Multiple-core model microprocessors typically perform better in highly-threaded tasks or any applications that require processor multitasking. Keep in mine multi-core processors typically have less per-core performance the higher number of cores they have. This means that, while an 8 core processor does better in highly threaded applications, it will more than likely exhibit lacking performance in single / lightly threaded workloads, such as older programs and most games. Most gamers will tell you that quad or even dual core processors are the best for gaming, due to their lower power requirements, thermal output, and better performance-per-core ratio.
What is processor of smart phone?
Smart phones use single core and multi-core processors.
Is it better to have a single core CPU 3.00Ghz or a quad core CPU 2.4Ghz for gaming?
It's better to have the Quad Core 2.4 GHz CPU because most games nowadays support multi-core processors.
How dual core processor is comparison to standard Pentium and AMD processors?
Well, this depends! If a single-core processor was produced today, it would more than likely have a far greater performance / watt ratio than a single core on a dual core processor. However, a dual core or multi core processor has the ability to handle more threads of work at a time, and this gives it a very distinct advantage when it comes to multi tasking or heavily threaded work loads. Dual core and better processors are definitely the way to go in today's world.
Is 2.0 GHz CPU is better than 1.86 GHz CPU?
Yes & no. If they are both single-core (one processor) than yes, the 2.0GHz is clocked at a higher speed. But in the case of multi-core processors it varies...such as: A 3.0GHz single-core CPU is "equivalent" to at 1.5GHz dual-core (two processors) CPU. Or a 1.5GHz Quad-core (four processors) CPU is faster than a 1.5GHz dual-core CPU because it'd be 1.3GHz x 4 processors versus 1.5GHz x 2 processors.
What does the multi-core processor do?
Literally that, a processor with Multiple Cores. This means the processor has mutipule fully functioning or discrete processing units, capable of handling the functions typically associated with the CPU.
Benefits of spread spectrum?
spread spectrum does a better job averaging the performance over a frequency band. it is not meant to have better performance than single-carrier approaches, but instead it does an averaging effect. its ideally suited to smooth out 'tone' interference or jamming, average over multi-path fading effects, and handle multi-user environments.
Does unix supports multi processors?
Yes, it does.
What are the advantages of a multi-cylinder engine compared to a single-cylinder engine?
A multi-cylinder engine typically offers better performance, smoother operation, and higher power output compared to a single-cylinder engine. This is because the multiple cylinders allow for more efficient combustion and power delivery.
What is quard core?
A quad core is one component (computer chip) consisting of multiple cores (computer processors). Processors were originally developed only using one core. If you wanted to do multiprocessing you needed to have two processors in your computer which meant having a special motherboard that could support multiple processors. The new processors (referred to as Multi-Core processors) are simply a single chip with two or more processors.
