Celerra VSA v5.6 and multicore?

Odd question...

I've built an old junk Poweredge 2550 (2x Intel P3 1.133ghz, 3GB of RAM etc....) box and tossed ESX 3.5i on it.

I've pretty much dedicated this box to running the Celerra VSA so I can learn Celerra to support our new VMax and Celerra Gateway we are getting in our office in the next month.

I've got everything loaded, and good to go. But I'm not sure the VSA is utilizing the 2 Procs I tossed at it. Is the kernel multiproc/multicore aware?

The performance on this old hardware is pretty dern slow, and I'm looking into a new Intel CPU that supports VT and tossing vSphere 4 in place of ESX 3.5i

But until then, I'd still like to see if I can get this box running at an acceptable speed.

Any tips?
