The current eCS versions do not come with SMP support as standard - you 
need to purchase it as a "feature". I believe the GA version of eCS 2.0 
is intended to have SMP included, however it's not available yet.

Hence I doubt if anyone has actually tested the board or chip you are 
referring to with eCS in SMP mode yet - you may be the first to try!
