Shared memory or other constructs from boost::interprocess will be used on 
multi-core computers? Will it be a performance degradation if two processes are 
allocated to different cores versus one core? The same with threads? 

Another look at this question is - should one program the inter-process/inter-
thread communication first and worry about multi-core later? Or something 
should be planned at the development stage?
