They were/are on bare metal so they have real dedicated cores and no VM overhead. Two bare metal cores is a hell of a lot faster than two virtual cores. I had been away from infrastructure during the rise of vmWare and didn't realize that the core count was potentially fake. I was sparring with an admin over resources one day and mentioned the number of cores on the VM and he just laughed. "Those are virtual, you don't really have four cores." Be careful in your assumptions about these VMs in the cloud. |
