Re: OT: 4 dual cores agains 2 quad cores

Hello,

to my mind the most impacting on a SMP server is the synchronisation time
between dies/cores. the time to synchronize 2 cores on different dies is
higher than the time to synchronize 2 cores on the same die. So to achieve
best performances you have to limit number of dies.
So a dual quad core should be more powerful than a 4 dual core.

You can verify this here : http://www.spec.org/cpu2006/results/cpu2006.html

results on a 2 chips server are ~20/30% higher than a 4 chips using the
same processor

regards,

David Amiel
