Houdini not using enough CPU and ram for simulations

I just assembled a new pc, but isnt this a too litle cpu usage for simultions? Ram usage as well looks a bit off (Im only using flip). The hardware usage percentages remains the same both for a 10 mln particles count or 200k. The setups are pretty default and they do not have strange values or settings, I even tried with different projects just in case. Switching on and off opencl doesnt affect the issue. There are no issues while rendering with karma cpu, as the cpu usage goes up to 96% and its really fast.

These are my pc specs:

Intel i9 14900k, 128gb ram ddr4 (2666 mhz), rtx 4060ti 16gb.

The simulation speed is indeed not even the double of my old 16gb ram laptop.
