to my knowledge PostgreSQL is not multi-threaded.
PHP appliations don't support threads or multiple processes; Perl supports multiple
processes and, especially in 5.6 (and some development
versions before it) threads.
Your gain from SMP under such situation is the application has a cpu for itself
and all the system overhead processes run on the other cpu.
I think PgSQL is thread-safe but someone like Bruce Momjian would know for sure.
