Not exactly apples to apples for TPC-C.

For the TPC-C systems you mention it should be noted the $/performance is $3.97/tpmC for the Xeon system vs. $2.72/tpmC for the Opteron system, which by the way is the lowest 4P price/performance of all (the second best is an HP Xeon system at $3.83/tpmC). The Opteron vendor was likely going for the best bang for the buck, not the highest performance. This same Vendor has the lowest $/tpmC for a 1P system as well, at $2.06/tpmC. This begs the question, could the Opteron system be made faster for the same $. We don't currently have the data to say one way or the other, so this argument seems kind of pointless.
