I don't use it but I'd suggest running it and seeing how many processes it runs as. If it's more than one and they get CPU time, then you might have a win. If not, you'd have to look a
little deeper.

MSVC++ can analyze a process for threads so perhaps you could
attach to a process to see if it's running multiple threads.

On my Mozilla builds, I can see up to 10 processes running at
the same time so I'm pretty sure that DP would benefit that
task.

the cpus shown are kinda old, but it get the point across - duals definitely help in a significant way, at least with processors up through some axps
