We could get a 192, or even 288 Core CPU in a single socket, depending on your Single Thread Performance requirement. And we are only about 12 months away from 256 Core with 512 vCPU. 8TB of Memory and NVMe Drives so fast that makes DRAM memory caching nearly irrelevant for most Web workloads. I just dont understand why aren't people pushing more complexity or CAPEX to hardware. And instead pushes all the complexity to software which has a recurring cost.
