When moving from RELENG_4 to RELENG_5, I noticed that in GENERIC, the options
options SMP # Symmetric MultiProcessor Kernel
device apic # I/O APIC
are enabled by default. Going forward, is this the best thing to leave in
my default kernel on a uniprocessor machine ? I am not using the ULE
scheduler either and have hyperthreading disabled in the BIOS.
I did a search on google, and in 2003 it was said not to having either on a
single processor machine but its not clear if this is no longer the case.
