Geoffrey,
I recall a reference on the list indicating that newer Xeon processors
don't suffer from the context switching problem reported last year.
Just to be clear, it's a software problem which affects all architectures,
including AMD and Sparc. It's just *worse* on the PIII and P4 generation
Xeons.
Thanks, that's what I need to hear. They've since cut a deal for
Operton based hardware, so the point is now moot.
