I think Todd's post on features which disable multiprocessing was not followed properly.
There are features which by their very nature do not get along well with simultaneous multi-core rendering. This is not specific to AE, and actually AE does the right thing in turning off multiprocessing in these cases, given that otherwise things would end taking much longer. This is the case for things like Particle Playground, many time-based effects and some third party plug-ins. This kind of highly time-dependent tools work in a way in which a frame is not really an independent entity from other frames and thus feeding separate frames to the different cores would make things worse, not better.

This is of course very different from the cases Lutz explained, in which a switch to 64 bit processing would definitely change everything.
