Which CPU is better for docker and container? I thinking about one machine with CPU Intel Xeon E3-1270v6 or two machines with D1540.

I compared these CPUs on two websites: https://www.cpubenchmark.net/compare/Intel-Xeon-E3-1270-v6-vs-Intel-Xeon-D-1540/3014vs2507 https://www.cpu-world.com/Compare/248/Intel_Xeon_D_D-1541_vs_Intel_Xeon_E3-1270_v6.html btw: which other website is good for comparing CPU?

At the moment I think that in a normal task like scraping, data storage is not the difference between this processor, and in price Intel Xeon E3-1270v6 I can have two machines with D1540 and others with the same parameter, but 2x more SSD NVE storage.

  • Does this answer your question? [Can you help me with my capacity planning?](https://serverfault.com/questions/384686/can-you-help-me-with-my-capacity-planning) – diya Sep 16 '22 at 13:34
  • Generally you'll need to do some actual benchmarking as lots of things depend on your specific workload. But a single [D-1540](https://www.intel.com/content/www/us/en/products/sku/87039/intel-xeon-processor-d1540-12m-cache-2-00-ghz/) has already twice the cores of an [E3-1270v6](https://www.intel.com/content/www/us/en/products/sku/97479/intel-xeon-processor-e31270-v6-8m-cache-3-80-ghz/) so any workload that scales with the number of concurrent threads/cores that can be used benefits there. The clock speed of the E3-1270v6 is much higher, which benefits single threaded CPU bound workloads. – diya Sep 16 '22 at 13:40
  • In practice single core performance wins. Choose 1270 – gapsf Sep 17 '22 at 05:29
