Shared cache only applies to SuperServer, which should be running on a
single CPU anyway. The hyperthreading (and OS support) of 8 years ago is
not the same as the multiple cores with shared elements of today. I'd
suggest to actually test it before just disabling something that might
actually be beneficial for performance.
