Long running thread limited to 1.5% cpu

I have some long running threads on a T5220 / Solaris 10 box and it seems they never get more then 1.5% of cpu per thread. Is there a way to give a thread more cpu on the T5220's?

Your thread is not limited. If you have a 8 core, 8 thread CPU, each CPU bounded single thread will use 100/(8*8)=1.56% of the total CPU power, which is what you observe.
