Sorry, but I think we'll need that confirming by some means for such a
high claimed boost.

I don't how well Windows does it's scheduling, but my observation on
Linux is that for a 'quiet' system, a process will stay on a single CPU
core for very long periods of time.

Hence, there should be no need for 'forcing' CPU affinity. Indeed,
restricting the CPU affinity could well show a reduced performance in
some circumstances.

As always, the truth is in any real world measurements!

Happy crunchin',
