Re: More cores or higer frequency ?

The answer, as always, is "it depends."

Can you give us an overview of your setup? The appropriate setup for small
numbers of long-running analytical queries (typically faster CPUs) will be
different than a setup for handling numerous simultaneous connections
(typically more cores).

But CPU is often not the limiting factor. With a better understanding of
your needs, people here can offer suggestions for memory, storage, pooling,
network, etc.

Cheers,
Steve
