Take a look at the Python Wiki for information on parallel processing
with Python:

http://wiki.python.org/moin/ParallelProcessing

Pure CPython code may not be able to use more than one CPU merely
through the use of threads (Jython and IronPython are different,
though), but using all the CPUs or cores in an SMP system is not
exactly a mere dream, as many of the projects listed on the above page
demonstrate.
