[mdlug] Dual Core with Hyper Threading

[David Lane]

I read an artical that talked adout having to recompile linux to support hyperthreading.  So now the dual Core with hyperthreading is very available, if and when I build such a system I want to make sure that ALL resources if the system are used properly.
   
  I'm not debating Just trying to get a perspective. 
   
  Thanks all
