This has however never been tested yet because of the following. -Mach used to be running on SMP boxes like the [[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Intel_iPSC/860 | iPSC 860]], so has an infrastructure for running on them. It has however not (yet) been ported to nowadays' SMP standards like ACPI etc. +Mach used to be running on SMP boxes like the [[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Intel_iPSC/860 | iPSC 860]], so has an infrastructure for running on them. It has however not (yet) been ported to nowadays' SMP standards like ACPI etc. The plan is to try Xen SMP support first. That is why for now GNU/Hurd will only uses one logical processor (i.e. one core or one thread, depending on the socket type). -- cgit v1.2.3
