I did a little searching and it looks like "processor affinity"
might be available now (kernel 2.4.x), although from what I can see it seems
like you need to patch the kernel for userland interaction. Some people
argue that Linux's scheduler does a good job of picking where to run,
therefore they feel that processor affinity isn't necessary. This might be
something to consider while benchmarking performance.

I don't believe this is supported in Linux. I have heard that other
OS's do allow it. I looked into doing something like this a year ago and
was unsuccessful in finding a solution. You may want to search for the
words "processor affinity", I believe that's the "technical" term used to
describe what your looking for.
If you find a solution, please post it back to the list.

I'm running a couple of dual processor servers and I would like to know
if there's a way to specify what cpu a program uses? Does that make
sense? I'm running Apache in front of Zope on RH 7.2 and I would like
the Zope server to use one CPU and the Apache server to use the other.
Is this possible?
TIA
Rick
