suggestions..

1. Patch linux kernel for HT aware scheduler.
2. Try running Xeons in HTdisabled modes.

See if that helps. I would say using 2.6 on it is recommended anyways.. If 
possible of course..
 </pre></blockquote> I would avoid 2.6 on a production machine. 2.6 breaks alot (not as in a bad thing, but as in not
reallycompatible with) of things. Wait until distribution vendors<br /> are shipping production with it.<br /><br />
