I restored from an rman backup to the new server and so far in my initial test I am seeing things slower on the new server. But one difference is the old server runs Windows 2003 R2 and the new servers is on 2008R2. Maybe that is a difference.

Its not just a change from dual-core to quad-core- almost everything in the new server is faster, some of it is significantly faster. Overall you should be pleased with improved performance.

All I know is the old server is a Dell PowerEdge 2950 with 32Gb of memory and a Clock Frequency of 1333Mhz and the new server is a Dell PowerEdge R710 with 48Gb of memory with a Clock Frequency of 6400Mhz. I am not sure what all that means though, except for memory.

Jeff,
Do you know the processor model number?
We recently migrated an HP DL585 G2 to a newer Dell Blade where a pair of dual cores (running RHEL 4U8 x86-64) was moved to a single socket, quad core Intel blade.
Old server had an on-die memory controller, 16 GB memory in total - likely 533 MHz.
New blade has 48 GB DDR3-1333 MHz memory. I believe that this processsor only supports 2 memory controller channels (per socket).
Processor is Intel Xeon X5667 3.06 GHz quad core.

We need to swap out one of our Windows database servers to a quad core because they are not making the dual core anymore. Let me know if you have any information. Thanks in advanced.
