Hi everybody, I would like to hear your opinion about enabling or not-enabling hyperthreading in an openMosix cluster. The openMosix-HOWTO states that the performances increase with the current Linux scheduler when hyperthreading is disabled. On the other side, I read some comment on an Intel web site that hyperthreading in combination with openMosix brings some benifits ... Does anybody has some opinion/experience about this issue? Has somebody done some benchmarks? By the way: has anyone experience with dual-core processors and openMosix? I suppose that this should be transparent to openMosix, but it would be nice if someone could confirm that there is no problem. And: is a single dual-core processor as fast as two single-core processors? Thanks for providing your feedback!
