60 times differences? What kind of CPUs do you have in slow and fast servers?

[shrughes]

Presumably it's parallelizable. Double the clockspeed, 16x the cores... that'll get you 32x improvement right there, but you've also got way more L3 cache, which might help considerably.

plus much more ram, faster drives and the fact that newer cpus get more done even at comparable clockspeeds ... and there's your 60x
