Hello, I've done some googling on the whether hyperthreading turned or on off could increase or decrease server performance. I just wanted to get some advice from some of the admins that run the AMD64 Debian port. (With an Intel em64T chip of course)
Some say that if you run a database server, that sometimes hyperthreading could decrease performance. Something about the cache sharing could impeed overall speed. Any truth to this? I'm running a sarge AMD64 box that is mainly used as a File, Web, email box. (no database) Running kernel 2.6.15-1-em64t-p4 from sid. Do you think going to a smp kernel will make things better or not? or does it really make a difference? I'm don't know of any benchmarks to test with. Just wanted to get some ideas from your experience. Thanks, Mike -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
