Do you know if it used Bulldozer or the updated Piledriver architecture? I just set up a personal home server yesterday with a 8350/16GB and ESXi 5.1, and the performance seems fine enough. Are there any kinds of tasks where the slowness becomes most apparent?
- sliverstorm 13y agoYour parent was using a SAN, which means your parent was in an enterprise setting and probably running 8 guests minimum (1 per core). I'd hazard that is where issues started to crop up.
- trotsky 13y agosorry for the late reply - that machine was using bulldozer cores, not piledriver. Also I was exaggerating for effect I guess, that thing has left a bad taste in my mouth. What I really mean is that when compared to a mainstream i7 it sucks - you can effectively put twice as much work on the i7, and it has the added bonus of being able to run a cpu hungry single threaded job basically twice as fast as the bulldozer when there isn't much/any cpu contention.
