NOTE: I didn't think I had to clarify this, but this is strictly a comparison between A and B processors. Nothing more. This is not a post to show any particular performance of any specific hardware combination. other than same hardware, CPU A vs CPU B. Your hardware choices make a big impact in your performance. This is just to illustrate that point in regards to CPU choices.
I had some extra hardware laying around and decided to do some bench tests.
vSphere/ESX 5.5 box with 3 data stores served from the FreeNAS 9.2.1 box.
1- iSCSI (first column)
2- iSCSI (second column)
3- NFS (third column)
sync=always on all tests.
Testing was done from a Windows 2012 R2 VM running on the ESX box.
I basically benchmarked the top row, shut down the FreeNas box, changed out CPUs, booted FN, and then benchmarked the bottom row.
The ESX box and Windows VM were never revolted between tests/CPU change-out.
Top row is the Xeon E5050.
Bottom row is Xeon E5410.
Everything else is exactly the same hardware/software/settings between tests.
