It is a long and somewhat involved (and, I got the impression, touchy and sensitive) topic.

Paul and Stephane provided long, well-thought-out, and detailed explanations of the issues on the jackit-devel list earlier this year.

My (oversimplified) understanding is: jackdmp will use as many processors as you've got, but how well and how granular it does it, depends on how you have your chain of connections set up, and to what degree your application software (softsynths, effects processors, DAW's, sequencers, etc.) exploit those opportunities for parallelism internally.
