According to Steven Hartland:
I believe previously smp support in FreeBSD has been limited
to smaller numbers of CPU's, we've got the opportunity to test
an 8 way dual core ( 16 cpu's ) this week, is 6.0 up to this?
I recall seeing someone on IRC saying they had a 14 CPU machine
(Sparc64
E4500) to play with so I think it should be ok.
I remember someone writing that the intermediate state of -CURRENT
while removing the giant lock around the kernel wasn't viable with
more than four CPUs as it would completely deadlock from time to
time. I guess we're a bit further down the road...
