CPU's as resources?

[Roger]

Suppose I have a single task that takes 10,000 hrs for one CPU to do.
I have multiple CPU's which can do this in parallel. So I want to say,
"hey, let me assign this to 2000 cpu's, and get the number down to 5 hours".

This is on a per task basis.... I need to do this for some of my tasks
(which can be paralled) and some which cannot.

Also, I want to easily change the number of cpu's to 5000, and get 2 hours.


So, how does one to this?

Set the task as "fixed work"
Define a resource as CPU.
Set the max units of CPU to 5000
Assign the CPU resource to the task at a rate of 200000%
