I agree there's obviously only 2 real processors, but the theory is kind of the same, the big problem is you have 2 processes and 2 processors currently working fine. That situation is ideal. The problem is the 3rd process added as the 2 currently are sucking up the best part of each cpu, and how that is handled
It's not ideal as its a bad scenario with 3 servers on 2 cpu's however you look at it, but I'd be surprised if you get better performance with 3 servers on 2 cpu's with HT off. Not going to get lots of improvement, but possibly a small amount I would guess. http://www.hardwareanalysis.com/content/reviews/article/1557.7/ That gives a better type of explanation really of 2 different processes on a HT system, I'd be genuinely interested if it comes out better performance with 3 ded servers with HT disabled as I'm no expert on it. _______________________________________________ To unsubscribe, edit your list preferences, or view the list archives, please visit: http://list.valvesoftware.com/mailman/listinfo/hlds_linux
