Hello Team,
Has anyone seen a performance justification for going with a quad processor?
I am also considering a quad processor just to use for dynamips as dual core
processor uses about 80-90% cpu when I start all devices, without any
routing configurationin windows. I have heard that ubuntu runs very well and
I have a CD here ready to go. If you have experience with this, I am sure
the group could benefit.
Sincerely,
John
