Makes sense.

Our internal box is a single Xeon processor at 3.0 GHz with 1 MB
cache, and it suits us just fine. I was tempted to go with an Opteron
processor, but since JRun doesn't support it (it will actually install
and run, but in 32-bit mode, which defeats the purpose of having a
64-bit processor!), I went with the 32-bit Xeon. That being said, we
are going to be looking into some new production servers, but I'm
waiting for the dual cores to mature a little bit. Since Macromedia's
licensing policy is based on the physical number of CPUs, I will be
able to essentially get two processors (and twice the processing
power) for the price of one, which is a substantial savings for my
company.
Hope this helps?
Regards,
Dave.
