How to set CPU affinity (taskset)?

[nixgeek]

You might want to take a look at this VERY old thread and see if it can point you in the right direction. The last post mentioned something about XGrid.

However, in most of the hits I found on Google from various forums and mailing lists, it seems that Mac OS X's kernel is able to manage processor affinity efficiently through its algorithms (or at least Apple says sounder "Multicore Optimized" ) so that there would be no need for manual configuration of processor affinity. Of course, Leopard (or Leopard Server) might have the tools built in for doing this manually of need be.
