Limiting the slots will still allow the OS to use the additional threads. And 
it's still up to the OS where to put each thread.

Switching it off on a BIOS level will also change the internal operation of the 
pipeline in the CPU as there are no threads to handle any more. IIRC there was 
something about it on the Beowulf list.
