How to Batch Render using as much processor as possible

I did a batch render of my animation, and when I looked in the task manager it always says that about 50% of my computer's processor is being used for the batch render. No other programs are being run, not even Maya. There was about 48% Idle. Also, not all of the RAM was being used, quite a small portion of it actually. I believe that RAM does not help rendering times as much as the processor though.

>>Does anyone know how I can increase the amount of processor percentage dedicated to batch rendering, as I would like to have the rendering complete faster and I would not use the computer at all while it is doing so. Please help.

Thanks,

Joe
