AMD64 kernel config file question

Neither the amd6/conf/GENERIC nor SMP config file
included:

device          apic 

I built my dual proc amd64s (5.3 release) on a tyan
k8s pro without it and the SMP is seems to be working
ok (tested it with openssl and got 2300 rsa1024
signs/sec).  Would it help performance if I added it?

p.s.  Sorry Ray... didn't realize I was replying
directly to you... meant to send it to the mailing
list... just joined ;)
