No, I don't think so.

Do you mean you will have one acceptor for each io_service, and one
io_service for each CPU? If you expect to have about the same amount of
work for each type of connection, then you could just handle all
per-connection request handling on the same io_service as the acceptor.
However, I'm not sure I completely understand what design you're
proposing in this second question.
