NAT Server, SMP box or Single CPU box?

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Hi,

I have read in different lists that some people are having problem doing NAT with SMP Servers, due to the way the kernel manage conntrack with both CPUs.
NAT runs slower on Server SMP with two CPUs?
Is it better a Server with one faster CPU than a server with two CPUs?
I need to buy a NAT Server for +1500 users. I would like to know if an SMP Server with two CPUs is the best choice.


Any help would be really appreciated.
Thanks all,
Donato.
