Hey,
I just installed 4.6-RELEASE on a dual 1.8Mhz Xeon + Tyan S2720
motherboard (a Relion 140 server from Penguin Computing, actually).
When I reboot with an SMP kernel, I see:
CPU: Pentium 4 (2199.76-Mhz 686-class CPU)
CPU: Pentium 4 (2199.76-Mhz 686-class CPU)
CPU: Pentium 4 (2199.76-Mhz 686-class CPU)
CPU: Pentium 4 (2199.76-Mhz 686-class CPU)
SMP: AP CPU #1 Launched!
SMP: AP CPU #2 Launched!
SMP: AP CPU #3 Launched!
That's twice as many CPUs as I think I have, each going 400Mhz faster. Is
this safe? Correct? Is it that hyperthreading stuff? Should I disable
it?
Thanks
- JD
