Most likely i misunderstood it.
Regarding the cpu's - this is from license agreement

http://download-uk.oracle.com/docs/cd/B25329_01/doc/license.102/b25456/toc.htm#BABHFGHA Any use of the Oracle Database Express Edition is subject to the following limitations; 1. Express Edition is limited to a single instance on any server; 2. Express Edition may be installed on a multiple CPU server, but may only be executed on one processor in any server; 3. Express Edition may only be used to support up to 4GB of user data (not including Express Edition system data); 4. Express Edition may use up to 1 GB RAM of available memory.
