Perhaps I overstated the issue, I get up times of many weeks on my dual P6 here that is used as a development system. Obviously many others are also using SMP for real work. But the efficiency just isn't there yet. We would bench very poorly against a good SMP system, and thats what needs improvement b4 we go prime-time with SMP.

Luckily we only have to compete against Solaris and UnixWare, and not good SMP systems... Dynix doesn't run on commodity hardware, and neither does Unisys's SVR4.0.2 ES/MP (which did the locking the right way instead of the Solaris/SVR4 way). And SMP SunOS 4.1.3 isn't widely sold, and where it is, it's mostly Japan and Bay Area ISP's, and then only on SPARC hardware...
