Just take care with more than 8 CPUs, because you need the largesmp
kernel then. Worked on a 8 socket, 16 CPU system where that was a pain
due to binary kernel modules.
Now those machines could be 32 CPU systems... and you could add 8
sockets more. 64 CPUs on Intel platform with commodity hardware. Not
that many years ago that would have been utopia :)
A few years from now you'll need that much horsepower to play Quake
VIII. :)
