If pricing is a factor, and you're considering per-cpu pricing, then lean
towards fewer, faster CPUs.
I think Intel announced a 2Ghz processor this week... :-)

We are in the process of sizing a new server for multiple Oracle instances.
What factors are useful as input in determining how many CPUs and the
relative speed of them? For example, do we want fewer, faster CPUs or do we
want more, slower CPUs? Are there any good guidelines to determine what the
number of CPUs should be?
Thanks in advance -
Lisa
