	Current 3.0 kernel does'nt use Pentium-enchanced bcopy
in case of SMP. I recall that it was connected with some
problems in FPU usage in SMP case. Is it feasible to try it
today ?

	On my Gateway GA-586DX with two P-133 famous

dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/null bs=1m count=100

shows ~56MB/s in SMP case vs. ~117MB/s in UP case ;-)
