| The following are data comparing the effects of hyperthreading (HT)on
| stock kernel 2.4.19 and 2.5.32.
| Hardware under test. The hardware is a Xeon 1-CPU MP, 1.6 gigahertz,
| and 2.5 GB RAM.
| Kernel under test. When testing under 2.4.19, the kernel was built
| as an SMP kernel, and was run on the hardware with HT enabled through
| the boot option 'noht'.
HT enabled with 'noht' ??
'noht' means "no HT", "no hyperthreading", disabled.
| When testing under 2.5.32, the kernel was
| built as an SMP kernel, and was run on the hardware with HT enabled
| through selecting ACPI in configuration.
