No need for benchmarks here, because Robert's processors don't do hyperthreading at all. FreeBSD 6.2 recognized the *cores* as logical HT processors, so he needs to set hyperthreading_allowed in order to enable the cores. Of course, the better solution is to update to a more recent release, such as 6.4 or even 7.1. His 6.2 is more than 2 years old and contains lots of known bugs, of which the wrong recognition of cores is a relatively harmless one.
I also tried 6.4 with exactly the same wrong results as 6.2. 7.1 is OK, but is has hyperthreading_allowed=1 by default.
