As stated earlier by Duncan (in what I thought was a great explanation!); "If you are using only a single-core AMD64, you'll want SMP off, because altho the kernel will work with it on, it'll be more bloated than it needs to be." This just means the physical size of the kernel will be larger than it needs to be, and consume more memory. It will have no impact on overall system performance. -- [email protected] mailing list
