Hello Adam.  Sorry for the delayed response…

The SMP work has been on hold and I plan to return to it in January.  The usecase you describe should be usable right now.  As I have said, the main issue remaining is thread priorities (currently they are not fully working when using SMP) and fine tuning the scheduler for fine grain load balancing.  Of course I’d be interested in any stress testing you can do.

Marc
