Default Shredder 7 and Hyperthreading on P4

Yes, I knew to what you were referring. No, the software believes that I
have one CPU (which I do, but it is two logical CPUs due to

hyperthreading).

Is it enabled in the BIOS? Does your OS support it?

Can you see two cpus in task manager?

As the engine Deep Sjeng supports HT, I assumed every engine can use it.

Only multiprocessor engines can.

But it seems it needs some additional code to use HT.


No (but it helps to have it).

I found this:

Bummer.


That page is a severe piece of misinformation.

I knew you would ask. Yes. I have a Dell Dimension 8250 with a P4 3.06GHz
processor. It shows two CPUs when you look in device manager. Also, it
works as a dual CPU machine under FreeBSD 5.1 (I have yet to try it with
Linux).
