Why would you want to override the scheduler like that? That would also mean not scheduling your process until all the CPUs were clear, and greatly increasing scheduler coordination overhead. So it would decrease overall work throughput.

CPU affinity is genuinely useful, but I can't see why you'd want this kind of temporal affinity. Especially since you could have different CPUs running at different speeds!
