More cores won't make it run any better if you can't access those extra cores. So for example a CPU with a 3.5GHz clock would run a single thread much better than a CPU with a 2.5GHz clock.
The only way that I can see getting access to those extra cores with ST4 would be to run multiple instances of the ST4 plug-in in separate instrument tracks within your host DAW, with a single instrument in each instance. If the DAW is setup correctly, it should allocate each track with an instance of ST4 to a different core.
While we do not support multi-core in stand-alone, as we did not find it to bring any advantages to SampleTank 4. Each DAW will handle performance differently. The SampleTank 4 plug-in should rely on the DAW for how it deals with performance.
