 Hi all,

 I'm looking for some infos/experience about Linux on multiprocessor
 machines. How well does Linux utilise multiple cpus? I remember this
 was an issue with recent NT vs. Linux benchmarks.

 Are the 2.2.x kernels good enough in this regard, or would you have
 to go to 2.3.x, potentially facing stability problems?

 Any recommendations wrt distributions/kernel versions?

 Thanks.
