You should not see any performance difference, the kernel figures out at
runtime whether it's SMP or not and then uses the correct code. Check
dmesg for something like:
SMP alternatives: switching to UP code
SMP alternatives: switching to SMP code
You are right, I do see the first line; I just rebooted the default kernel
in noapic mode to check some other thing (Bug 350980), and so I checked
what you said.
But I also recompile to optimize for the Pentium IV, and some times I
dissable some drivers I know I don't use, like pci hotplug - that's if I
feel in the mood to search over all the config, there are so many options
that oftener I don't dissable anything out of laziness.
