You seem to be say that both
a) Single instance of application doesn't scale over multiple cores, and
b) Multiple instances of application scales well over multiple independent servers
Can you explain why they are unable to efficiently run multiple instances of the application on the same CPU (with multiple cores)?
The only thing I could think of would be running up against IO/Memory bandwidth limits.
- eyegor 7y agoThey can, what I'm saying is that a single application doesn't scale well over multiple cores. Multiple instances on a single cpu generally works fine, but the biggest impact on performance is per core speed. Edit: I was really just responding to "who spends $15,000 on a mid-high end server to run single threaded applications anyway?". I would absolutely consider this a "single threaded application".
