An Intel presentation about server platforms: download.intel.com Gives some insight into necessity for CSI, and into the Caneland (4S) platform. Basically conclusion is that memory bandwidth and latency are the key drivers for platform performance. Comparing charts 16 and 18, the 4S Caneland platform has the same number of FBDIMM channels as 2S. Four channels of DDR2-667 according to this: physorg.com Seeing as there are several charts in that Intel presentation that point out the bandwidth sensitivity of SPECint_rate, SPECfp_rate and several server benchmarks, I would say that Caneland will be at a distinct disadvantage to 4S Barcelona with 2-3 times the bandwidth.
