Re: [squid-users] New Squid Installation

I tried my Intel 3.0GHz processor on an Intel D865 board with hyperthreading
enabled in BIOS for FC3 but unfortunately I failed to start the system until
it disabled in BIOS back. So I forget about hyperthreading under Linux. But
I heard that you can re-compile the kernel with this facility. Please ask
this question from FC mailing list.

Subject: [squid-users] New Squid Installation

Hi,

I just got a new HP DL380 server in my hands. I need to replace a older HP
DL360 server that runs squid for about 2500-3000 clients.

This box will have raid1 for system and then 4 extra disks for cacheing
(standalone, not raid).

It also has 2 processors (3.4Ghz Xeon / Hyperthreading) and 4Gb of memory.

I was wondering ...Should i have hyperthreading enabled or not? I've been
reading along somewhere that some people say that hyperthreading does not
work very good with squid ...any hints about this ;)?

Kær kveðja / Best regards,
