OT: To Hyperthread or NOT to Hyperthread

[Craig Retief]

HI All,

 

A question maybe 4 the gurus.

 

When running a Linux server with MailScanner, SpamAssassin, Sendmail, "the
milters", razor, pyzor, dcc, bdc, clamav, etc, etc, etc. Would it be better
to have the servers hyperthreading enabled or disabled?

 

I have read articles where the general recommended consensus is that it
should be disabled. Has anyone actually experienced this scenario or have
some comments relating?

 

Thanks

 

Craig
