SMP kernels on single processor machines
Hi,
putting together another release of the Debian kernel image packages,
I am wondering whether we could get rid of half the packages by simply
not supplying single processor flavours - after all, SMP kernels run
fine on single processor machines. I have repeatedly been told,
however, that this bears a considerable performance hit on some
hardware. Can anybody confirm or deny this? Even small hints would
be appreciated.
Regards, Jens.
