The Propeller may have 8 cogs, but you don't have to use them all.  One cog is pretty fast all by itself.  A lot of the usage of multiple cogs is transparent to the user / programmer.  They're usually used for specific I/O drivers like for a PS/2 keyboard or TV/VGA display or for high speed serial I/O or a multi-servo controller.  The I/O driver (object) takes care of managing the extra cog(s) for you.  As far as you're concerned, you're just working with a single cog and there's nothing special you have to do.
