Have not tested it lately, but likely still true, in regards to "I guess"... why not just try it and see for sure?

I remember in the early days of FreeSWITCH it was recommended to turn off hyperthreading as it had a negative impact on FreeSWITCH performace, Can someone confirm if this has changed with newer processors or newer kernel, if hyperthreading boosts performance then I would guess that a 10 core xeon would give me at least as much performace as a 16 core AMD.

Thanks

You would have to test to see, most of my experience is a couple chip generations back now but bang for the buck was much better with intel then and we saw many more weird issues on AMD boxes.

Hi all,

I know that in general Intel Xeon processors are recommended over AMD for FreeSWITCH, my question is if AMD is really bad or just not as good as Intel, I can get now a server with 4x AMD 6174 (48 Core total) for about the same price I would pay for a Dual Xeon 6 Core (12 core total), Should I go for the AMD which will give me 4x the amount of cores or stick to Xeon, my goal is to get the maximum amount of channels/calls  (doing lua IVR with no transcoding) and conferencing.

Any help, feedback, benchmarks or personal experience would be appreciated

Thanks
