When I was benchmarking TLS handshaking with http://play.golang.org/p/WZlt7mI4WN , I
noticed that using GOMAXPROCS > 1 does make my program significantly slower (1.5x ~
2x). And I found the reason to be CPU frequency scaling, because no threads run hot
enough to stimulate CPU cores.
May be worth mention that in the FAQ.
