Symmetric multiprocessing (SMP) involves a multiprocessor computer hardware and
software architecture where two or more identical processors are connected to a
single, shared main memory, have full access to all input and output devices,
and are controlled by a single operating system instance that treats all
processors equally, reserving none for special purposes. Most multiprocessor
systems today use an SMP architecture. In the case of multi-core processors, the
SMP architecture applies to the cores, treating them as separate processors.

Tomas,

Sigh. I should have known this. Yesterday I had too much going on at one
time to realize that the SMP applies to all CPUs with more than one core.

Many thanks for pointing out the obvious.

Best regards,

Rich
