You need at least one cpu per node, of course. :-)

You can use many as you feel like.

Multi-threaded apps run all threads on the same node.  (This is because 
sharing writable memory between nodes is pretty inefficient).  If you 
write your app as "multi-process" rather than "multi-thread", 
communicating using pipes, sockets or queues  instead of shared memory 
then you can distribute your app across multiple nodes.
