That's a good point.  We have that very problem here where I work.
However, Yaakov isn't adding anything new here so, if this is a problem,
it would be a long-standing one.

It sounds like it would be trivially solvable by setting the processor
affinity mask but I'm not sure what that would mean for performance.
