However I do wonder if we have been misinterpreting these tests. We tend
to assume the position of "see hyperthreading is bad, switch it off".
The linked post under the one above:
http://www.postgresql.org/message-id/53ED371D.109@catalyst.net.nz
shows that 60 core (no hyperthreading) performance is also pessimal,
leading me to conclude that *perhaps* it is simply the number of cores
that is the problem - particularly as benchmark results for single
socket cpus clearly show hyperthreading helps performance...
