The main reason SuperServer(SS) isn't available for OS X, is because CS runs
so well on BSD-based unixes(ultra-light process context switches...)
SS will yield no benefits, unless you REALLY need the shared results
cache...

(This is info from 18 months ago. I'm prepared to be proved wrong...)

The big question is: Why do you need SuperServer?
