What do you expect to get? There are no 4 real CPUs. The only benefit
that the HT technology has is when you need very fast switching between
process/threads ... in this case the kernel should be prety good at it,
and won't see any benefit from HT.

(I guess you are talking about HT.. you've said hp up there)
