Why are you wasting Quad Xeon processors on an OpenBSD box? OpenBSD has always had poor dual processor support, and the performance boost drops even further when you go to 4 processors.

Are you sure these boxes weren't running FreeBSD?

um, actually OpenBSD doesn't have ANY SMP support. So if you add more procs it'll only use one.
