Hi, Without knowing the exact specs of those machines, I'd choose the one with bigger L2(/L3) cache and/or FSB since sipx has java processes and operates on large datasets.
We found, that our HP DL360 with E5405(2.0GHz, 12MB L2, 1333MHz FSB) was considerably faster, than our DL320 with X3210(2.13GHz, 8MB L2, 1066MHz FSB). Both CPUs are quad core CPUs. Hope this helps, C -----Original Message----- From: Kyle Haefner [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: Wednesday, May 11, 2011 3:24 PM To: sipx-users Subject: [sipx-users] CPU Cores Vs. CPU Speed Opteron Vs. Xeon Hi Users, I finally got the green light to start ramping up our SIPX install on main campus and I'm looking into upgrading our servers to support 8000 users. I'm looking at basically two options and AMD based machine and an Intel based machine. AMD: 4 processors (2 GHz), 8 cores each = 32 cores! 16 GB RAM INTEL: 2 processors (3 GHz), 6 cores each = 12 cores 12 GB RAM With these kind of machines is it still recommended to split media into its own server? Thanks! Kyle _______________________________________________ sipx-users mailing list [email protected] List Archive: http://list.sipfoundry.org/archive/sipx-users/
