More CPU cores or higher frequency/speed per core?

[Stardenver]

Hi all

I don't really understand how Cloudron is utilizing processor cores. Will I benefit from CPUs with lower speed/frequency per core but more cores? Or should I prefer a CPU with less cores but a higher frequenzy per core/thread?

Thanks all

@Stardenver Interested in this use case too but have yet to do any organized testing....

There are some main factors regarding how Cloudron runs things that I considered important

• Containerized apps and core services (linux)
• Docker network (the network resides on one linux instance)

Given docker and the network are open in terms of running multi process/threads besides the CPU speed It mainly depends on how the app itself is built

A good rule of thumb would be to just keep a nice ratio between speed and amount of threads

If you can going with high speed and most amount of thread's is the most "optimal" in terms of specs, not so much price...

I know its an open ended answer but that's because there is no one "right" answer lol
