Hi James, As you mentioned in your bug report:
http://bugzilla.ganglia.info/cgi-bin/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=84 This has been discussed several times in the mailing lists, like this one last year: http://sourceforge.net/mailarchive/forum.php?forum_id=7186&max_rows=25&style=threaded&viewmonth=200502 But as the discussion last year confirms, different people might want it to work in different ways. The best solution would probably be to patch gmond to report both the number of real and virtual (hyperthreaded) CPUs and have a config option in the webfrontend to display the load based on one of the two CPU counts. ~Jason On Wed, 2006-03-01 at 09:40 -0500, James Mcininch wrote: > > I want to bring attention to Bugzilla item 84 -- a patch submitted to > fix improper reporting > of cpu_num on hyperthreaded Intel processors. > > The patch causes it to report the number of CPU cores rather than the > number of virtual > CPUs. > -- /------------------------------------------------------------------\ | Jason A.
