 From engineering perspective, what will break if you just enable SMP 
kernel?

I would expect processes to be spread to different cores (with caveats 
regarding affinity and NUMA) and thats about it. Sounds like an easy win 
and would give more CPU time to RPD. But I'm not J software engineer and 
it sounds too good to be true anyway.

Excellent, thanks.
