We're not forcing anything -- it's configurable via loader.conf. All we're talking about is changing the default value. > By the way, I wonder how sun4v (aka Niagara) fares in this respect.

Should we disable it by default there as well? ;-) I haven't seen any experiments done on sun4v, but I'm less concerned about it since I believe sun4v boxes are used more often for large computing jobs rather than for interactive logins with many untrusted users. Of course, if/when we have scheduler support for keeping different users on separate cores, this should be applied to sun4v as well.
