[Twisted-Python] Spawning processes and multiple CPU's.

I'm using reactor.spawnProcess to perform some inherently-blocking
code (imagemagick scripts).

I'm curious if multiple CPU's would help me out. I know that a single
python (and therefore a single reactor) cannot benefit from multiple
CPU's, but since the spawn process is a kernel call, will it be sent
to both processors?

Thanks.
