Can you give me an idea why should I use the SMP kernel instead of Bigmen kernel
[turn off the hyperthreading]? Will it be better to turn off ?

I think so that there may be some query load on our programe and I try to locate
it.
But if I reduce the config to :
max_connections = 160
shared_buffers = 2048 [Total = 2.5 Gb.]
sort_mem = 8192 [Total = 1280 Mb.]
vacuum_mem = 16384
effective_cache_size = 128897 [= 1007 Mb. = 1 Gb. ]
Will it be more suitable for my server than before?
Thanks for all comment.
