[opensuse] systemload / cpu's

Perhaps a silly question...

I noticed on one of my machines, one of the cores was permanently 100%
busy, while others were stile idle. (two dual-cores)

This i noticed both for openvpn and rsync. For both my cpu is apperently
the bottleneck, not my network.

Aren't the processes supposed to be spread even on the different core's?
