A single Python process also a multi-threaded Python application can never 
run on multiple CPUs. Multiple CPUs, cores etc. together with Python make 
only sense when you run multiple Python processes e.g. multiple ZEO clients 
or ZEO client + ZEO server. For standalone Zope instance dual-core  CPU 
give you nothing.
