I'll take a stab at it, but I'm only hypothesizing (aka no proof). I would think the quad duals would be faster because of it being easier to dissipate the heat (should be less per chip). However, if you get a really industrial strength liquid cooling system for the two quad's then they'll probably be faster because of the faster clock speed of the cores.

I am trying to answer a question of performance. It is not important the redundancy/failover or the price of the server. Just the performance. obviously all the hardware specs are the same, the question is the CPU. -- ------------------------------------------------------------ Erick Perez Panama Sistemas Integradores de Telefonia IP y Soluciones Para Centros de Datos Panama, Republica de Panama Cel Panama. +(507) 6694-4780 ------------------------------------------------------------ _______________________________________________ CentOS mailing list CentOS@xxxxxxxxxx http://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos
