Whereas, if it does support HT, I'd say it depends on what you're using the machine for, which kernel you've got... eg disable HT if it's a 2.4 kernel and you want to run MPI since the scheduler doesn't seem up to the job (and it'll go slower on 2 processes with HT on than on one with HT off) M -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
