Cores/Threads

« on: June 02, 2020, 04:11:49 pm »

I have a new unit I am building, with a 4 core/4 thread i5. Will OPNsense take advantage of hyperthreading, or is it just a pure core thing.

The question is, how many concurrent processes do you have? 20 OpenVPN server instances, Squid, IPS, postfix, radius, then yes. For plain firewall usage, no difference
