How would I turn that off? In the kernel config? Not too familiar with
that. I have a 2 proc xeon with 4 gigs of mem on the way for postgres,
so I hope HT isn't a problem. If HT is turned off, does it just not
use the other "half" of the processor? Or does the processor just work
as one unit?
Also, I'm taking a look at that site right now :)
