[Cryptography] OpenSSL minimal "safe" configuration?

I noticed that OpenSSL uses only 1 core, even when "no-threads" is *not* specified.

Although thread libraries seem to get loaded, the heavy computation is still only done by one core.

I presume that this is to counter some attack?

Is there a link/reference to this attack?
