CPU Load Balancing? - ANSWERED!

Does updating to 2016.9 automatically take care of load balancing or is there a switch that needs to be checked/flipped?

    To enable/disable plug-in load balancing
    To enable/disable plug-in load balancing, go to Edit > Preferences > Audio - Playback and Recording and select Plug-In Load Balancing. This option is only available if Use Multiprocessing Engine is enabled.

    Yep, I found it.  Based on the help file I really don't need it on since the CPUs look pretty balanced without it.  The help file also mentions that if the CPUs are already balanced turning on the balance plugins could actually hurt performance.
