As for the script calculation speed, we recommend to give preference to the machines with higher CPU frequency, than to the number of cores: e.g. 8 cores with 3600 base frequency is better than 16 cores with 2300 base frequency. | As for the script calculation speed, we recommend to give preference to the machines with higher CPU frequency, than to the number of cores: e.g. 8 cores with 3600 base frequency is better than 16 cores with 2300 base frequency. | ||
