Freebsd 5.3 Performance

I have noticed with all the work gone in to 5.x to optimise SMP
performance in return uniprocessor performance has suffered
considerably I think this is what the concerns are about?  Will future
releases such as 5.4 remedy this by fixing the drop in performance on
uniprocessor machines?
