Hey, We would like to run 2.6 on a server, but I have a question about some options: * Symmetric multi-processing support: What happens if we enable this and run it on a uni-processor system? Will it run slower? * Preemptible Kernel: This should be used on a desktop PC. Is it better to enable or disable it on a system that is used only as a server or firewall? * Packet socket: mmapped IO: What is the effect of this? Is this the famous interruptless network? How can we see if a network driver is running interruptless or not? Thanks in advance, Wouter -- Kernelnewbies: Help each other learn about the Linux kernel.
