Processor binding is indeed almost never a proper way to enhance to performance of the bounded process. It might however help improving the performance of other processes by limiting the CPU resources the bounded process can use.

Another usage is to approximate the process performance that would be observed on a single core server while you "only" have a multi-core one to test it.
