If you have setup with 10 machines and new interpreter works 10% faster,
you can serve same amount of users with 9 machines. Plus Moore talks about
number of transistors and not about performance or power consumption.
Three core in one processor consume less than three different
processors. More CPUs in one host will also faster than many hosts
(processing power). Sorry, but Jani's reference to Moore is correct.
But that's definitively not the topic :)
