Ah gotcha! Well that's good at least, i hadn't thought to check /proc/cpuinfo. should've done that.
Big reason for wanting a loader from the FS3017 which would support 2 physical cpu's is to take advantage of that syno virtual machine app. Could run quite a few if it would only see that second cpu. Its not a huge deal if its a hassle to make, just would be nifty.
