I just got a hyperthreaded computer and I'm noticing that it doesn't handle
memory as well as my other machines.
I haven't been doing anything different, infact I ghosted my hdd to the new
machine, so everything is identicle, except I built the kernel for SMP.
It only has 512MB right now, but so do my other machines that do about the
same amount of work.
The only difference I notice is the HT'd machine will begin swapping much
faster than the other machines. Then it gets really slow.
I'm not a big fan of HT to begin with as I'd rather have dual-core or just
dual cpu, but is this typical? Or is something wrong?
