I think it was supported in Oracle 8.1.5 and is documented in the tuning
manual.
we used the single task executables for doing some benchmarks in 8.1.5
and it did give us quite a bit of performance enhancement and yes as
Tanel indicates, its definitely not recommended to be run in a production
environment. We did not run into any major issues with these executables
except we had to fix the make files to get them compiled.

We did achieve performance improvements of 30 to 40% on certain exports
and sqlloader loads. This was on Sequent NUMA running Oracle 8.1.5 and
Dynix/ptx 4.4.1
