On my ASUS CUV4X-D motherboard, with Dual P3 1Ghz, when SMP is enabled (and *no* other options/changes are enabled/made), the processors run as slow as snails - far slower than either one individually. Here is my dmesg output: Copyright (c) 1992-2001 The FreeBSD Project. Copyright (c) 1979, 1980, 1983, 1986, 1988, 1989, 1991, 1992, 1993, 1994 The Regents of the University of California.

Why is it running so slowly when SMP is enabled? Would another release version fix this? Although questions shouldn't be asked here, the problem seems to be technical.
