FYI, Hyperthreading isn't really geared as a server technology. It's more for the desktop space.
This is especially the case where you have applications which actually benefit from multi-threading (i.e. databases) which perform much better with hyperthreading turned off.
As a rule, i turn off HT on all of our ovz boxes, but thats just because of previous experience and the knowledge that it shouldn't be getting some huge boost from it, not from any actual performance testing.
I'd love to hear the opinions of some other folks on this.
