Not only does 9.2 scale *much* better than 9.1, but the E5-2440 is a 15MB cache Sandy Bridge, as opposed to a 12MB cache Nehalem. Despite the slightly lower clock speed, you should have much better performance with 9.2 on the 2440.

Check the BIOS for the CPU settings, because some motherboards and vendors have different defaults. I know we got inconsistent and much worse performance until we made those two changes on our HP systems.

Yes, on pgbench utilising cpu to 80-90% e2660 is better, it goes to 140k ro tps, so scalability is very very good.
But i talk about real oltp ro query. Single threaded. And cpu clock was real winner.
