Hi all,
I am trying to understand the difference between running Checkpoint NGx R65
on IBM 3650 (Intel platform) versuses Sun X4200-M2 (AMD opteron) platform.
IBM 3650 is dual quad-core processors and Sun X4200-M2 is dual dual-core
AMD.
WITHOUT Performance Pack (SecureXL) installed, the cpu work load on the IBM
3650 is even distributed between 8 core. However, the CPU on the X4200-M2
is 99% utilized on a particular core while the other core is at 100% idle.
If I enable Checkpoint SecureXL on the X4200-M2, then I will see the CPU
work load is distributed evenly among all the core.
In other words, SecureXL must be installed and enable on the X4200-M2
in order for the work load to be distributed among the CPU cores. SecureXL
is NOT needed on the IBM 3650 for this to happen.
Is it normal? I am at a lost here.
Thanks.
