I might be inclined to say real cores would be better if you plan on actually running large multipod workloads. But if you ever want to repurpose it the newer cores may be more generally useful.

Alternatively, I am thinking of doing a dual Xeon setup with this CPU: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16819117629&cm_re=xeon_e5-_-19-117-629-_-Product Which would allow my to go up > 128gb ram and have 16 cores with 32 threads. I know the Xeon is an older arch (Haswell) so it's two generations behind but I can't afford the latest xeon chips. So, the question is, better to have more cores/threads on older arch or skylake for origin workloads. -- gs _______________________________________________ users mailing list [email protected] http://lists.openshift.redhat.com/openshiftmm/listinfo/users
