One hosting company suggested I "upgrade" from a machine with an Intel
Celeron 2.8 Ghz to a machine with an Intel Celeron 430 1.8 Ghz. At
first I wondered why the supposedly better one would have a smaller
Ghz number. But I know that an X Ghz processor is not necessarily
faster than a Y Ghz processor just because X > Y. But in that case,
is there a rule for determining which is better? A published list
that lists all processors in order by their speed (assuming a fixed
task like running a busy Web server)?
In the congested metropolis where I sometimes drive, I find it's faster to
stay in the right lane, as everybody else thinks the left lane is the "fast"
lane and uses that, leaving the right lane far more fluid and always in
motion, while the left and center lane is oftentimes at a complete stop; the
similarity to your cpu frequency issue should be obvious.
