Dual Xeon and Rewire

Dual Xeon and Rewire 

I have a simple question while I impatiently await the arrival of my 002R. My understanding of using Pro Tools with a dual xeon system is that PT only runs on one of the CPUs, although the user can specify how much of this processor is assigned to PT and AS/RTAS plugins up to a maximum of 99% My question is, if i use a rewired application such as Reason and set CPU usage to 99% for PT, will a dual xeon system use the other processor to run Reason or will it simply see it as it does an RTAS plug in and run it on the same CPU as Pro Tools? Thanks Paul p.s let me know if any of my assumptions above are incorrect.

You can use Vst plug ins with PT. Just get the VST to RTAS wrapper.

setting the processor Affinity of rewired app to the other CPU will make sure its UI runs on the other CPU. however as stated above the main processing is done inside the rewire host in general if you need maximum processing set all other apps to run on the other processor so that the DAE has a compleate processor with nothing else sharing it
