We already support it back to 3.0, though not necessarily in the most efficient manner. 5.0 will handle hyperthreading slightly better than 3.x and 4.x, but I expect that real support (as in, schedule threads onto CPU's more sanely so we balance load on physical processors) will be a 6.0 feature. -- John Baldwin <jhb@FreeBSD.org> <>< http://www.FreeBSD.org/~jhb/ "Power Users Use the Power to Serve!" - http://www.FreeBSD.org/ To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-hackers" in the body of the message
