Hi Richard, Correct. A single thread can only run on 1 CPU at any given time, even though the OS may switch the thread between CPUs over time. Matt - Original Message - From: "Richard Bewley" Sent: Saturday, November 01, 2003 9:48 PM Subject: RE: mySQL with a quad proces

mySQL with a quad processor system

2003-11-01 Thread Richard Bewley
Hi, I'm setting up a machine that will have a rather heavy load on it, with mysql that has 4 processors. It's running RedHat Linux 9.0, with a kernel with SMP to support the multiple processors. Is there anything special I need to do with mySQL to get it to take advantage of the multiple CPU's?
