As soon as you have any code in any thread it can be run on any processor...
So, if you have two IOProcs for different devices, this will mean you'll
have two threads, one for each DEVICE (not IOProc -> you can have multiple
IOProcs for the same device in the same app and they will all be called to
execute on the same thread -> its a thread per device (just being clear)).
As you have two threads, they may run on different processors...
