On Linux, SMP is the default - has been on the distros I use for years - at
least since 2010.

I have many VMs here ... let me check all the currently running machines/VMs ...
every last one of them has an SMP kernel even though most have 1 vCPU assigned
and have never seen more.  Perhaps that is a Server install thing?  Don't really
use desktops anymore.

Perhaps TinyCore or Puppy or router distros don't use SMP?
