[19:28] nope [19:28] oh hangon the xeon i7s should [19:28] but they're xeons with xeon pricing and i7 names :) [19:29] http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16819117402 [19:29] actualyl not as bad as i thought [19:34] http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16820231853 [19:40] http://ark.intel.com/products/82932/Intel-Core-i7-5820K-Processor-15M-Cache-up-to-3_60-GHz < that says 64 GB Ram max [19:40] it may predate 1gb sicks [19:41] s/1gb sicks/16gb sticks [19:41] it may predate 16gb sticks [19:41] wow i missed two characters [19:41] what is "Hyper-V VMBus hypercall user-space exit" :) [19:42] it's getting into the silly naming :) [19:43] this new schedule/cpu frequency scaling coming to linux sounds good [19:44] at the moment cpu frequency scaling ends up not working very well unless you have light/high load [19:49] mercutio: you ever try proxmox? [19:50] mnathani: not yet [19:50] i tried smartos [19:53] is that also like a virtualization gui? [19:54] or more command line based stuff? [19:54] it's like a virtualisation OS [19:54] based on Linux? [19:54] https://smartos.org/ [19:54] nah [19:54] solaris [19:55] is there a paid version? [19:55] or all free? [19:55] it's free [19:55] you may be able to get support contract [19:56] i wish dtrace would come to linux [19:57] it's what i miss most from solaris ;) [19:59] i think dtrace is on freebsd [19:59] how would you explain dtrace? The wikipedia page is too technical [20:00] dtrace is great for looking at what low level code programs are doing [20:00] in order to debug issues/performance/etc [20:01] basically it's great for performance analysis [20:01] so you can do things like see which applications are doing small synchronous disk writes easily [20:01] useful mainly for developer / programer type persons? [20:06] Nah it is more devops and sys admin [20:06] are there wrappers / gui programs around it [20:07] or is it more like low level system commands [20:07] it basically makes it easy to identify what is causing bottlenecks in a running system [20:08] so if you have a web page that sometimes takes 7 seconds to load but usually takes 0.1 seconds to load, it's great for figuring out why [20:08] like it may be dns, or network, or disk, or something else [20:09] and so it helps pinpoint where issues are [20:09] I see [20:09] especially with niggly intermittment problems like that [20:18] do you know of a site that can provide best value for money on an i7 series processor [20:18] probably the DDR3 2011 board [20:31] i wouldnt' go over 64gb myself [20:32] better to go skylake and 64gb [20:32] mnathani: we use proxmox a lot at work. [20:32] ddr3 2011 would go second hand [20:32] apparently you can just use xeon cpus in some of the desktop boards [20:33] although ddr3 can't do 128gb on desktop boards [20:33] you need to do ddr4 [20:33] probably stick with 64 gb for now [20:33] ddr3 if possible to keep costs down [20:33] i'm not sure why you'd want heaps of ram on a desktop though [20:33] ddr3 and ddr4 are similar pricing [20:34] but you can get 16gb ddr4 sticks way cheaper than 16gb ddr3 sticks [20:34] for 16gb on ddr3 you need to use registered ram which i suspect the desktop boards won't support [20:34] with ddr4 you can do 8x8 pretty cheap [20:34] on haswell-ep [20:34] and skylake you should be able to do 4x16gb on normal boards [20:35] I want to be able to do nested vms [20:35] proxmox / vmware vsphere [20:35] then get a separate server [20:35] to try them out [20:35] then cisco virtual routers [20:35] i hvae a hp single cpu server with 6x8gb [20:36] was cheap [20:36] and still ecc [20:36] it's noisy though [20:36] so it's usually turned off [21:21] *** dj_goku has quit IRC (Remote host closed the connection) [21:32] *** dj_goku has joined #arpnetworks [22:22] *** erratic has joined #arpnetworks
