The kernel upgrade did not help... Would an update to an 2.6 kernel help or should I better turn hyperthreading off?

My experience is running _modified_ 2.4 kernels. Turning HT off solved the problem here. Of course YMMV if the root cause is different.

I have no experience of running HT on 2.6. My hunch would be that more HT users run 2.6 than 2.4 nowadays, so the problem would've been raised by now? If so your choice depends on whether the joint benefits of HT and of 2.6 outweigh any effort of moving to 2.6.
