Hi, I need to spec out a system that will be probably be slightly larger than the DBpedia data set.
I was thinking about this system http://premierconfigure.us.dell.com/dellstore/config.aspx?c=&ci=E1794&customer_id=RC956904&~tgt=cfg&l=en&s=hied&cs=RC956904 In my experience, performance etc. seems to be based mainly on IO in both memory and disk. Unfortunately I don't know a lot of the specific's like how many triples there will actually be but I thought I should post to the list to see what the thoughts are on CPU vs Disk vs RAM etc. The system above seems to have a number of advantages, but will max out at 32 GB of RAM. Also to what extent is disk speed and issue once all the data has been loaded into RAM? Would a system based on SSD's be better than one with 15K SAS drives?
