Jose,
This question is answered better than I ever could on www.linuxhardware.org/features/01/10/15/1443234.shtml (http://)
basically the answer to your question is yes, but it really depends on how many clients are accessing the machine that is using the processors.
One simple question won't push even the tiniest processor. But in a multiuser enviornment, where speed is needed, the multiple processors will help.
Look at the article. I am sure there are many more out there on this too.

Um... what?
If you have configured your kernel for SMP support (or installed the -smp kernel from your distribution), and if you have two or more processors, then yes, Linux will be able to run processes and threads on both (or all) processors, just fine. But I'm not sure if that was what you were asking...
