Re: SMP detection

I've read that SMP should be disabled for performance issues (I did not
know that before installing freebsd). I have a P4 3GHz with hyperthreading

I've decided to disable SMP from BIOS. Is that ok?, knowing that I have a
Smp enabled kernel? or should I install one without smp? If so, is there a
way to install one already precompiled?
Thanks in advance
