Nah, dosbox (and of course anything that runs inside it) is single threaded. Seriously, 4 cores on a mobile device, with software written the way it is today, is completely superfluous. Even on my workstation most cores are idle unless I'm compiling.

Those tegra3s might make a nice build farm for some ARM distro or other though.
