I have built a new kernel (5.2.1) that boots, but doesn't appear to use both procs. Running top only shows one cpu line in the header - the entry for top switches between cpu0 and cpu1 (in the state column) so there is some recognition of the 2 procs just not spreading the load. I am importing multiple times into mysql to check load - the best I can do is get 45% idle. This is the start of the dmesg output - seems to see them both... > dmesg Copyright (c) 1992-2004 The FreeBSD Project.
