To quote my comments in the Wiki item in question:
With multi-core processors, multiprocessor systems are now a lot more common.
There are limits on what can be done with them, as dissection is a bit
"embarassingly serial" - dissecting packet N may depend on information from
previous packets - but most of the dependencies are probably between packets in
a given conversation, so we might be able to dissect packets from different
conversations in parallel as long as the dissection of packets in the
conversations in question is no longer dependent on other conversations.
