From my personal experience (currently running:
Dual PIII-600
1GB PC133 SDRAM
two Ultra2 20GB SCSI's
)
if you are just running any single program (game, gnome, john, whatever)
it will make an ALMOST 0 difference.  If you are running a heavily hit
webserver, it will make a huge difference.
It only helps programs that are multi/threaded or multi/forked.
httpd is mult-forked.
