Let's say I have an application that is fairly processor-intensive - which means when it is running, it's using at least 50-75% of the available CPU. It is also very thread intensive - running minimum of 500 threads, up to well over a thousand. BTW, it's a Java program...and would be running on a current Linux kernel, such as RHES4.
I am curious if I should expect to get better performance from, for instance: 1) a slower dual-processor machine, e.g. dual 1.4GHz PIII 2) a faster single-processor machine, e.g. 2.6GHz P4 I realize any answer would have about a zillion caveats, but is there any generally accepted wisdom along these lines?
