Steve,
I walked into an environment with an existing TS/Citrix farm on
Win2k/SP3 and hyperthreading was enabled. I tracked the performance
for about 45 days and although the affinity wasn't perfect, the
overall stability and performance were good. Approaching a
high-volume period, I didn't want to take any chances on stability and
disabled hyperthreading. The last thing I needed was for a server to
freeze if a "virtual" cpu got pegged.
If I had it to do all over again, I'd have left the hyperthreading
alone. I encountered heightened cpu contention afterwards. Stability
can only be disproven, not proven, so I can't say if I dodged any
bullets. I have enough servers that I could have absorbed a crash of
a machine. In retrospect, I should have waited for a problem to
appear before disabling hyperthreading.
2 cents,
Bob
