Hi, I wanted to know if DragonFlyBSD supports Hyper threading or not. I did some benchmarking recently and it seems that on a Xeon dual core with 2 virtual cpu per core, DFBSD only scale to 2 threads and after that the number of transactions/second dorps (using sysbench oltp). So does that mean DFBSD does not support Hyperthreading !? If that is the case, I need to perform the benchmarks on a different machine without hyper threading. Please kindly advise. 
Thanks, Saman Barghi
