multiple CPUs and vmstat
I'm running 7.0 on i386. I'd like to see multiple cpu stats in vmstat. vmstat procs memory page disk faults cpu r b w avmfre flt re pi pofr sr ad0 in sy cs us sy id 0 0 0 398000 77144 7298 1 1 0 5686 12 0 117 18938 1758 32 11 58 The formatting got whacked, sorry. I looked at several man pages and couldn't find any other stat program that showed multiple processors. I have a system monitor running under SuperKaramba, but on a Hyperthreaded system, it shows both processors with identical CPU percentages. I had sent a bug report to KDE, but the guy that picked it up couldn't understand my point. Which is, since a hyperthreaded CPU is actually two pipelines sharing a common execution unit, the best it could be doing is complementary precents, i.e., if one CPU is 60% utilized, then the other CPU couldn't be any better than 40 % utilized. ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Multiple CPUs without SMP

Multiple CPUs...verifying
Does FreeBSD autodetect multiple CPU's or do you specifically have to configure the kernel and recompile? I tried downloading the latest code using cvsup..commenting out the following two lines...and tried to follow the make world procedure as outline in the handbook. However, when I try to boot with the new kernel...it doesn't work. Also, how do you verify whether or not both CPUs have been configured in the kernel...and that they are in fact being used?
