My system has 2 cpu's (xeon) with each 2 cores, so that's four total. That's certainly enough for now, one might think. But does Murphy's law still apply? When does enough cores break the bottleneck and turn the speed of the hard drive into the systems' bottle neck?
From the core monitor I can see that the OS is smart enough in spreading the load over the cores, and it is all snappy and what not. But will I in two years from now already crave for 4 cpu's or 2 cpu's with quad cores, etc?
Isn't basically anything over 1ghz that let's say .. has enough ram and fast bus speeds enough to do 90% of today's tasks?
