* dual socket is power hungry for both platform * still 450W at idle isn't only due to dual CPU * 150W for full load, really?

- aetherspawn 4y agoOur use case is we're running around 30 GitHub Actions runners on VMs that are just building code in MATLAB. 'Full load' is => all the runners are occupied, CPU shows around 50% on the host. The idle case on the Intel server is RHEL OS running several Windows VMs that are doing nothing, and the loaded case is when we spin up a large VM with around 40 cores on that host and run something in MATLAB (essentially a similar job to what the runners would otherwise be running). The comparison is not completely accurate, but our experience was only anecdotal.
