Adding a new ARM device

Any idea if BOINC can utilize all 8 cores? I know those SoCs are setup to limit power usage, so I wonder if the OS will let both sets of Arm cores simultaneously run 100%.
 
So far it only has used 4 cores from it. I think the 8 core Exynos 7420 has four high performance cores & the other 4 are not equal in performance & used for power saving (Heterogeneous Multi-Processing). I believe there are four Cortex A57 at 2.1 GHz and four Cortex A53 1.5 GHz. So far it seems BOINC is only using the four 2.1 GHz cores. I've been on vacation and not messed much with it. When I was at home I fired it off and checked in only to see four tasks being ran.
