As far as I know, pcpu has never worked for limiting beyond a single core. I 
submitted a patch for kern/kern_racct.c that should fix it:
 
https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=189870

Please update the bug if it does or doesn't resolve the issue. Maybe that will 
prompt a committer to apply it to stable.
