Yes. The task of transcoding a single call is done by a single thread
and hence a single CPU.

If you're only going to have one concurrent transcoding, this will
indeed be the case. But in that case a nice little PII will also do :-)

When you have multiple calls, each call (or actually: each channel, but
that doesn't really matter here) will be handled by a different thread.
And threads can be schuled to different CPUs concurrently.
