You are right but
a) affects Supersever only
b) it is recommended to use one processor for FB SS and another for
other tasks. SS still is'nt optimized to be used on 2 and more processors.

Classic successfully uses as many processors as you have - each
connect have own server process and this is OS business to share
resources.
