By default, no...I don't think it will use both processors.  You have
to make a custom kernel and enable SMP.  Look here
http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/kernelconfig-building.html
for how to do it.  In 5.x, I believe all you need is "options SMP",
but I could be wrong.  If you build the sample "LINT" kernel config,
it will show you in there.

Good luck,
