Could the MS Interrupt-Affinity Filter tool be of any benefit in a cMP setup?

Hi Cics,

In Vangelis71’s thread I red about the MS Interrupt-Affinity Filter tool (See also: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/252867 ) to lock specific hardware too a specific cpu on a multi-processor platform.

The cMP-shell is locking the most critical audio thread to CPU1 on a software level. Would it be any good to use the Interrupt-Affinity Filter tool and lock al non audio critical hardware to CPU0 (so to free up CPU1) and lock the Lynx card (and possibly other audio critical hardware) to CPU1? (as Vangelis71 does in his Atom setup)
