ok, i did a little experiment the other day running a program called super pi... i was surprised to see that it performed better with ht disabled than enabled. another thing i noticed was that when ht was enabled my cpu claimed to be running at only 50%, ie super pi was only using one logical cpu, even though it shouldnt be restricted to doing this.
i also noticed games tend to do the same thing, ie only use 50% cpu. so is this simply the cpu monitor misrepresenting whats really happening, or am i actually losing performance here, and if so how do i fix it and get programs to use both logical processors??
