Hello, I read an interesting article on 2cpu.com that talks about the performance differences between a P4 processor with Hyperthreading(HT) enabled and disabled. http://www.2cpu.com/articles/ht_explored/index.html
The bottom line of the article is that processor intensive applications greatly benefit from HT being enabled, but memory intensive applications can actually see a slight decrease in performance if HT is enabled. I have tried Asterisk on the same machine with both HT on and off and haven't noticed much difference in overall performance. Is Asterisk's high memory usage canceling out most of the performance gained by using HT? And the best question is should I spend my money on a dual Athlon machine instead of a P4C with HT? Thanks, MATT--- _______________________________________________ Asterisk-Users mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users
