  THANK YOU SCOTT
                                   THAT'S WHAT IVE BEEN STATING ALL ALONG
AND GETTING NEGATIVE FEEDBACK.
  Some people are so opinionated that they don't read the facts.  I have
been using this for over a month with even better results.

Dan

"Intel Xeon Hyper-Threading is definitely having a positive impact on Linux
kernel and multithreaded applications. The speed-up from Hyper-Threading

to drastic changes in the scheduler run queue's support and Hyper-Threading
awareness. ..."
