We tried to find information on "sticky cpu" and weren't able to. We
brought this to our sys admins and they weren't able to either, nor were
they willing to user a support item to get an answer from Microsoft
given that StateServer gave us a way around the issue. We ended up
going with StateServer as our fall back.
You may want to take the question of whether or not you can do this to
an IIS user group and see if anyone there knows. Sorry I couldn't help
further on this.
