I'm bringing up a new type of server using Intel E5-2620 (unisocket) which was selected for good SpecIntRate performance vs cost/power (201 for $410 and 95W).
Was assuming it was 6-core but I just noticed it has HT which is currently enabled since I see 12 cores in /proc/cpuinfo
Question for the performance experts : is it better to have HT enabled or disabled for this generation of Xeon ? Workload will be moderately concurrent, small OLTP type transactions. We'll also run a few low-load VMs (using KVM) and a big Java application.
Any thoughts welcome. Thanks. -- Sent via pgsql-performance mailing list (pgsql-performance@postgresql.org) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-performance
