I have a patch available at: http://people.freebsd.org/~jeff/ulehtt.diff This resolves issues in the code that handles HTT enabled processors and also adds some ULE information to bootverbose on SMP systems. Peter Wemm has a seperate patch that fixes a bug where some amd64 cpus were still being misidentified as HTT. Those of you with invalid loads either have Hyper-threading CPUs or misidentified amd cores. You should expect slightly poorer performance as long as your cores are misidentified but the bad loads should be fixed. I also believe that the buildkernel/world times are now significantly improved. If this is not the case for you please send a mail. Any other performance data is appreciated. Thanks, Jeff
