Re: CPU usage Nehalem 2.93 xServe only 60-70%

I just installed some new Nehalem Xserves yesterday and wow are these babies fast. I'll agree the CPU usage doesn't look very high, mine only seems to hit about 40-50% on all cores. However compared to the last generation it completes jobs 40% faster. And compared to the first generation Intel Xserves these are 50% faster.

Given that the RAM and OS are not quite optimized for Nehalem yet, I can only suspect these new Xserves will get faster still once the OS catches up. And maybe Telestream has some code optimizing to do themselves.

In the meantime I'm going to enjoy the faster clock speed as that's already a major jump.
