Re: stupid question about shmmax, shmmni and shmall...

size limitation but I would suggest to have the mmap-ing fit into RAM. Of course, you have to synchronize your processes using some different mechanism (pipes, sockets, IPC semaphores semget & semop, Posix semaphores, ...) or even maybe mutex inside the common shared mmap-ed memory

Re: How to use SMP right?

use, you just need to install an SMP kernel (but recent ones ie 2.6.21 are always SMP!) et voilà. Of course, don't expect any sequential number crunching program to speed up. You'll need to parallelize it. What precisely do you intend to do with your new bi-core workstation? Regards.
