I have never really ran into cpu issues using ZFS with LZ4 compression even at fairly high usage so I imagine any of them would work fine.

Motherboard is Asrock E3C224 with 2x8 GB ECC RAM. I have these 3 CPU's in consideration: 1) Pentium G3450T 2) Core i3 I3-4130T 3) Xeon E3-1220V3 Taking the price tag and power consumption into consideration what would be the optimal choice? What performance can I expect from the above listed CPU's? If performance is also taking into consideration will that change the optimal choice? -- Hilsen/Regards Michael Rasmussen Get my public GnuPG keys: michael <at> rasmussen <dot> cc http://pgp.mit.edu:11371/pks/lookup?op=get&search=0xD3C9A00E mir <at> datanom <dot> net http://pgp.mit.edu:11371/pks/lookup?op=get&search=0xE501F51C mir <at> miras <dot> org http://pgp.mit.edu:11371/pks/lookup?op=get&search=0xE3E80917 -------------------------------------------------------------- /usr/games/fortune -es says: Rule the Empire through force. -- Shogun Tokugawa _______________________________________________ OmniOS-discuss mailing list OmniOS-discuss@lists.omniti.com http://lists.omniti.com/mailman/listinfo/omnios-discuss
