Try to disable HTT in bios. It seldom gives you very much, and
somtetimes degrades performance. Is it a webserver? If it generates
alot of temporary files you can try adding/changing the following in
/etc/sysctl.conf:

kern.ipc.somaxconn=3D2048
kern.maxfiles=3D65536
vfs.ufs.dirhash_maxmem=3D8388608
