You told that the performance of firebird superserver version will be
drop on SMP Machine (including dual core and hyperthreading). At the
other side, you told that performance will die if I change the affinity
mask to two CPUs. Is that meaning if I leave the default value
(CPUAffinityMask = 1 or 2) the performance won't be drop? I'm already
read the manual, but I can find the answer of my question above.
