well, as i said, it was nothing really conclusive (i'm not going to waste much time
to go from 128/2 to 64/2, diminishing returns...), and my box is generally under-powered
for what i do with it.
in short, i figured it's not significant really. i merely added this here in case
there's a general picture emerging... it wasn't even intended as criticism.
and even if it turned out jack2 would be one step worse than jack1, that's not at all
a big price to pay for smp imho. same with the kernel: an smp build does degrade
performance on an up box, but who cares, really? you can't even buy up workstations
any more, and nature dictates that single-core performance has hit its limit...
luck has it that my mobo just got fried, so chances are i'll be contributing some
nice quad-core data in the near future - if only my customers paid their bills on time...
best,
jörn
