The same strange behavior I could see with an Intel quad core. The folding@home smp client uses about 60% of the cpu under 10.3. I stopped the smp client and restarted it under 11.0rc1. There only 30% of the cpu are used for the calculations. Still all four threads are running but with lower cpu usage.
What's the reason for this? Is it a bug in the 2.6.25 kernel?
That wouldn't be my first hypothesis... Are these C# / .Net / Mono applications? Perhaps the problem lies in the Mono runtime? Have you contacted the F@H people? Is this a BOINC-based application? If so, have you contacted them? There's a good chance you're not the only person seeing this, though there may not yet be many people using openSUSE 11.0, given that it's in pre-release.
