[rtl] MP vs. SMP Performance

["Basham, Richard R" <Richard.Basham@PSS.Boeing.com>]

Hi everyone,

I am in the process of buying a couple new computers to run RT-Linux (I finally got some $$).  And I have a few questions.

1. Can anyone tell me what the performance benefits are for buying a machine with two CPUs vs. one?

2. Furthermore, is there much of a hit complexity wise with getting RT-Linux to run on a machine with two CPUs?  

3. Are there any interface card issues I need to know about?

4. Are there any issues with using PIII over PII?

Thanks in advance,

Rich
