SMP Affinity changer!!

nik4eva created utility for dynamical distribution of FAH SMP client processes to cpu cores. Utility works like Windows® service, and it is completely automatical. Once per 10 minutes Affinity Changer checks to which cores are assigned FAH SMP processes, and if needed, reassigns them evenly, 2 processes for double-core cpu, and 1 process for each core for Quad (4-cores processor).
Aparently you can shave about a minute or two a percent from what people are saying... Anyone try this out?
