I thought that at least since FireEngine, the network stack could
use multiple CPUs!
Oooh! I just looked at the FireEngine docs, and while I was aware that
we'd broken the all-NICs-need-CPU0, I hadn't bothered to read the
FireEngine implementation.

Whee! Learn something every day...
I can't find any reference to Phase 2 being implemented in any Solaris
10 Update release, which I'm kinda surprised at. Has FireEngine been
merged with the Network Cache and Accelerator as planned? I'm assuming
it has (my guess is either Update 2 or 3), as it sounds like a complete
FireEngine implementation is required for both Nemo and Yosemite (let
alone Crossbow). The What's New sections aren't terribly helpful mapping
back codenames to actual feature lists...
