Should I expect to see the work spread across CPUs? On FreeBSD 5.x you should expect to see the load spread across both CPUs if you are using libkse of libthread as a threading library. On FreeBSD 4.x the only threading library is libc_r which won't spread the load across the CPUs. -- Greg Lewis Email : glewis@eyesbeyond.com Eyes Beyond Web : http://www.eyesbeyond.com Information Technology FreeBSD : glewis@FreeBSD.org
