    Hi all,

    Is there any performance gain when using Standard-PC HAL over ACPI-PC
    HAL? I'm running FreeBSD 5.4-STABLE on a abit KR7A(KT266A) motherboard.
    I currently have APIC disabled in the bios, ACPI disabled at boot and I
    feel like my system is snappier. Just wondering if there is any truth to
    this.

    over and out,
    Jesse
