I agree. At work I have a couple of very old 4-way servers (one with Pentium Pros, the other PIII Xeons), which run 5-STABLE happily with the stock SMP kernel configuration. Admittedly, there was a problem with SMP in 5.3-RELEASE, but that is long behind us. With 5.4 it should work almost out of the box (modulo a kernel build, and I seem to recall discussion about including SMP kernels in future releases). I can't comment about SMP on newer processors - I only get the cast offs to recycle as something useful. -- Adrian Wontroba _______________________________________________ freebsd-stable@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-stable To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
