Exactly, the budget single processor configuration to beat in server land
right now is the Xeon X3210. The frequency of the cores is a little on
the low side, so individual queries won't run quite as fast as some of the
dual-core alternatives, but when you get twice as many of them it's hard
to complain. The X3220 is a little faster and more expensive.
