CentOS 4 and Intel P4 without Hyper-Threading vs. Intel P4 with Hyper-Threading

[jnewbigin at ict.swin.edu.au (John Newbigin)]

I assume you mean by swapping the harddisk to a new box? That should be 
fine.  If you are not already using an SMP kernel then you might want to 
install it:
yum install kernel-smp

It is optional but might give you better performance because you can use 
the HT.
