Having 281 processes is not a biggie. Having 281 processes that can actually use a piece of the CPUs is quite a different thing.
I think we should, really, start thinking about such things. Maybe prefixing instructions with the execution unit that should handle them (and overflow back to the first one in a circle if we have more EU's in software than the actual hardware provides), separating dependencies within code flow in a more explicit way and, at the same time, not bothering with creating threads.
