I remember in the early days of FreeSWITCH it was recommended to turn off
hyperthreading as it had a negative impact on FreeSWITCH performace, Can
someone confirm if this has changed with newer processors or newer kernel,
if hyperthreading boosts performance then I would guess that a 10 core xeon
would give me at least as much performace as a 16 core AMD.
Thanks
