And don't forget Oracle Power Unit Licensing costs? # cpus is a multiplier.

I was wondering if it would be better to have three or four relatively
slower CPUs than having only two faster ones.
I think I remember that Ixora says fewer faster CPUs is better
I realize too that it depends on the number of concurrent user sessions.

The following discussion assumes "big buss SMP" not MPP or any of its
derivations. Your mileage may vary.
If you have one CPU then all of the multiple CPU code in the kernel is
not used. There is a penalty that is paid for the second and subsequent cpu's.
So, the answer is... it depends!
