You're confusing linux-threads with pthreads. The performance boosts mentioned
are done using the FreeBSD Posix threads ("pthreads") library, in FreeBSD 7.x
they are implemented using libthr(3).
The benchmarks also assume you are using SCHED_ULE, rather then SCHED_4BSD.
Nothing should be configured if you run GENERIC later then 7.0-RELEASE.
There are tips available here:
