Home -> Community -> Mailing Lists -> Oracle-L -> RE: 280R vs 240V
David - I haven't benchmarked these. If you can, you should perform a small
benchmark with your application. Can you split your database between two
servers? If not, how will you get around this issue? Will your method
require more DBA maintenance work? Often the money you save at purchase
seems very small as you struggle with a difficult situation over many years.
On the other hand if you are a consultant, you can make your customer happy
now and increase your fees for years to come. Just kidding.

I'm looking at getting 1 Sun 280R which has 2X1.2GHZ processeors
versus 2 Sun 240V which has 2X1GHZ processors
The price of the 240V is half of the cost of the 280R but it has 1/8th the cpu cache. At this cost I would prefer to have the 2 machines for load balancing but I have concerns over the lower cpu cache.
Can anyone help with this decision?
Thanks, Dave
