If I were to add my two cents, I would say the OS scheduler, the bus,
memory access all will play their part.
ie, I think you will get more juice out of 8 single CPU machines each
running a tomcat, than one machine with 8 CPU's, as your 8cpu machine
will not have 8 parallel buses, 8 drives, 8 everything etc.
Of course, but it also means 8 HE rack space, 16 power cables, 8
switch ports etc. It also means 8 systems to backup, to install and to
administrate. We are trying to find a configuration between n-one cpu
servers and 1 n-cpu server which is best from the manageability point
of view and has optimal tco.
Personally I don't believe that anything with more than 2 cpu's will
ever pay out, but we have to test it :-)
he he, thats where bladeservers come in, of course, they are not cheap,
and you'd probably need a SAN! ;)
