Are they any issues still with hyperthreading processors, I've read and been told by a few people to make sure its disabled in bios if I want to use * on a hyperthreading machine. Kind Regards, Chris Bond

Hi, my video sharing website (politube.org) that I developed with rails, runs on lighttpd/fcgi (I know it is obsolete by now) and is severely under load and regularly blocks because the lighttpd process chews up 50% of RAM (1GB). So now I want to move the system to a new server with 8GB, 64bit , Quad core processor (intel i7 920) but I am not sure if hyperthreading will really do anything better.

I just tried to install CentOS (x86_64 4.4 and i386 4.3, not both at once, when I found the 64bit version didn't boot, I tried the 32bit version, same result) on a dual Naconda Xeon system. I get an OOPS just after the IDE info is printed on the screen during boot (this is booting off the CD during the install phase). After mucking about with the bios settings (and many reboots later), I

My Dell 2800 Dual 64bit Proc. machine came in with hyperthreading enabled. (they call it virtual processor??) I have been intending for a month to disable it. Tonight, I rebooted, turned it off, and let the system come up. zaptel loaded and asterisk loaded, but both of my t1s were red. (it is a TE411P) /proc/interrupts looked OK, zttest gave OK numbers. I doublechecked all of the files in case

...ading and start to load up an Asterisk box we get ratty sounding audio along with pops, clicks and ticks, but if I disable hyperthreading (noht on the kernel line in lilo/grub) and all of those anomalies go away and the box scales a whole lot higher. The problem is that the 2.4 Kernel sees the one hyperthreaded processor as two totally separate processors, so the 2.4 kernel tends to mess up, badly, when scheduling the processing. This problem was delt with in the 2.5 kernel and i've been told by quite a few trusted people that it works flawlessly, but i'm not about to run a unstable kernel (or ev...

Hi, Anyone know how to compile asterisk for a hyperthreaded processor? Thnx

Hi, I have been trying to get Hyperthreading to work in a Windows HVM on Xen 4.1.2 as described in ''xmexample.hvm''. I think I have set it up correctly, but I can''t seem to get it to work. There is not much documentation on it and most topics are from years ago. I''m curious to know to whether this functionality is still supposed to work. I''m aware that

I've to setup Asterisk on a Dell PowerEdge 1750 server. Its dual Xeon 3GHz with Hyperthreading. People on this list who have experience with this server please advise me how is the performance of Asterisk on this server, what flavour of linux is good on it etc. Is Hyperthreading going to be a problem or not. I once read somewhere that hyperthreading caused some voice quality problems in

Hi, I can''t get rid of an annoying domU machines hanging issue with Hyperthreading enabled in my BIOS. Hardware config: IBM x325 series 2 * CPUs Intel Xeon 3.06 Ghz Xen version: 3.0.0 Kernel version: 2.6.12.6 Linux distrib: Debian Sarge 3.1 r1 I run 1 domU machine on my dom0, here is my Xen config: . xen0: /etc/xen/xend-config.sxp : (dom0-num-cpus 0) .

Hello, I read an interesting article on 2cpu.com that talks about the performance differences between a P4 processor with Hyperthreading(HT) enabled and disabled. http://www.2cpu.com/articles/ht_explored/index.html The bottom line of the article is that processor intensive applications greatly benefit from HT being enabled, but memory intensive applications can actually see a slight decrease in

Hi all, We have Xeon-based system with only 1 (hyperthreaded) CPU (in a HP DL360). We are seeing high load on multiple meetme session as well as g729 transcoding. My question is will putting an extra CPU help or does Asterisk just run on a single CPU. -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

That's the problem we had with Asterisk and HT on a 2.4 Kernel: whenever Asterisk was staying in the RTP stream, and HT was enabled (on a Dell Dual Xeon system), we had choppy audio. After disabling HT, everything was fine again. Nothing measurable, indeed, but you could definitely hear it. So there *must* be something. -Manuel -----Messaggio originale----- Da: Peter Corlett

Hi, All: Does the guest OS need to detect hyperthreading? One would think that the hypervisor decides what to schedule on what CPU, and the job of the guest is not to be too smart for its own good. So, my first reaction was to comment detect_ht() altogether. Fedora Core 5 has the code in detect_ht(), though I have no idea what the results of this are on HT CPUs, if they match the reality.

Just gave 3.0 a spin. Had been running 2.0.7 for the past 3 months or so without problems (aside from intermittent failure during live migration). Anyway, 3.0 seems to have an issue with my machine. It starts up the 4 domains that I''ve got defined (was running 6 user domains with 2.0.7, but two of those were running 2.4 kernels which I can''t seem to build with Xen 3.0 yet, and

Hi, I have two boxes with 2 * Xeon 3.0 Ghz I''ve enabled Hyperthreading in the BIOS. - One box is with Xen 3.0.1 I''ve enabled SMP + SMT in my kernel Xen0 config, and SMP + SMT works perfectly. I can see 4 cpus in my VCPU list for Domain0, and I see also 4 CPUs in the /proc/cpuinfo file. - One box is with Xen 3.0.2 I''ve enabled SMP in my kernel Xen0 config, and SMT has

I have some beefy dual-Xeon servers that I will be using for Asterisk VoIP applications (i.e. no Zaptel cards). Using 2.6.11-1.14_FC3smp as the kernel (Fedora Core 3), and currently with Asterisk STABLE. My question is concerning the CPU setup, as I've seen conflicting or out-of-date suggestions: given the above config, should I have hyper-threading turned on or off? Turned on appears like 4

Hi all (and Mr. Dunlap in particular), I have a question about the credit (and ultimately credit2) scheduler that I hope you can help me with. I have read the white paper "Scheduler development update" and as much material on the credit scheduler as I can find, but I am still not completely clear on how I should think about the cap. Example scenario: Server hardware: 2

Hi, with regards Intels L1TF vulnerabilities, it seems they are somewhat non-committal on whether turning off HyperThreading is required, suggesting people > Consult with your hypervisor vendor for more guidance. https://www.intel.com/content/www/us/en/architecture-and-technology/l1tf.html#faq-answers-10-0 What is the consensus in the Libvirt community about the risks (or not) of leaving

Hi gang! I'm using Centos 4.4 at work on a HP Proliant DL320 G2, which has a Hypterthreaded Pentium IV CPU. I used to use RHEL WS 2.1 on it, and RH installed and used the SMP kernel. Centos 4.4 did NOT install the SMP kernel. Is there some reason why I should NOT install it myself? I.e., some reason why an SMP kernel shouldn't be used on such a machine?
