Probably not. The x86 context switch is pretty fast. So I doubt the PPC
has any advantages in this area.

All I can say is that testing with the MIT software, the article from

box.

If your hardware and kernel properly supports hyperthreading, then you
would actually see what appears like multiple processors in "top" and
other system monitors, but it is actually your one Pentium4 or Xeon

Just curious, how are you measuring your performance benchmarks. I did
some searchs on hyperthreading benchmarks, and none of them indicate
anywhere near that kind of performance increase. The performance
improvements are usually under 10%.

I doubt the issue is with the distribution. What kernel version is used
