FC5 seems keen to get me to run the smp kernel (I'm on a uniprocessor machine without hyperthreading). I've noticed with this update (since the smp kernel runs - the one that came with the original install didn't) that the smp kernel seems to be noticeably slower than the non-smp kernel.
Do you have a processor which supports NX (see /proc/cpuinfo). If so, we were defaulting to installing kernel-smp for test1. Unfortunately, that has turned up some problems and so won't be the case in test2 or later.
Yes I do.
Sadly, the smp kernel is significantly slower than the non-smp kernel. (or ar least for this round it is).
