check out schedutils & CPU affinity. I also seem to recall reading

switch CPUs, but my quick google just now didn't find that, so maybe
I'm making that up.

The Opterons are looking a lot better there than some of the other

there were new messages. So it is still manual, but at least you can
easily mark the entire thread.

ufed? I might do it myself, but if someone has/is planning to, I'd just
as soon not reinvent the wheel.
