I flirted with a syctl locking option with 5.2 (or 4.x). When one of the
logical processes used the calculation processer, the second logical
processor where locked. I turned this off. The result was that the two
logical processes started fighting with eachother to who was first in
using the calculation processer. Causing a decrease in effency and a
increase in CPU temp. I don't remeber any other options. I've stiked
with GENERIC ather this.
