this is not a real answer to your question but why do you want to use  
cluster mode on one PC? If you just want to use both cores transcode  
handles this for it's own. I have a dual-core CPU too and during a  
normal transcoding top reports for transcode CPU usage of around 150%  
(I assume top calculates 100% for one core), the rest up to 200% is  
taken by other tools from the transcode package so idle percentage is  
close to zero.
