Re: [Geoserver-users] More CPU or more RAM?

I would do empirical benchmarks, but it's tricky on Amazon instances, my experience is that the actual performance can vary a lot over the course of a month. The problem is that these units don't do much accounting on I/O or memory bandwidth, so it all depends on what your neighbors are doing.

looks like it's only using ~500MB, and 1G for the OS buffers. How're you running tomcat/jetty wrt to heap allocation? Be sure to pass -Xmx as appropriate to the java virtual machine and follow this where applicable: http://docs.geoserver.org/stable/en/user/production/index.html I would go for

How much data is going to be served up? The advantage of more memory would be that your shapefile disk block would make it in to the OS disk cache, and then things would go quite fast. Of course once that happens then you'll definitely be CPU bound, so if most of your data will fit in the 7g of
