Ed, We're looking at a 8K to 10K difference in the cost between the two. Will there be any signifigant/noticable differences?

At the start running 5.5 hopefully migrating to E2K sooner rather than later. I was hoping that someone may be able to help me decide whether or not to invest in 1MB or 2MB L2 processor cache rather than buying the 512K L2 cache. This server over the next 5 years may be supporting up to 1,000 users and if someone could give me their opinions on whether 1MB or 2MB of cache will be needed or if the performance gain will even be seen with a server supporting 1,000 users I'd greatly appreciate it. I've been looking to buy a server with dual 1.8 Ghz/512K processors. I have priced other servers that are far more expensive with 1MB or 2MB cache. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
