Hi all,

I encounter a problem with a dual Xeon 2.4G HTT

I see 4 processors ->

I activated HTT with sysctl -w machdep.hlt_logical_cpus=0


Everything's alright

But, when I launch a huge process (for exmaple, I launch perl to calculate webstats with awstat), the process uses 100% of one CPU and top show that only 25% of CPU are used and load average freeze on 1 and every other services (apache and mysql) don't answer correctly and I encounter timeout (Mysql was compiled from the ports with LINUXTHREADS).

Why just 1 CPU i used ?

There is no distribution ?


Thanks for help and be lenient for my approximate english :)

Julien

I suppose that only one processor is
