Twelve point two billion transistors. That's absolutely nuts. Does anyone have a ballpark figure for how much a 'drawer' of four of these things costs? What's it supposed to run, is this an Oracle/DB2 beast?
My impression is that RDBMS workloads are generally far more IO-intensive than CPU-intensive.
Looking at my own Azure SQL CPU vs IO vs Log charts right now, even with some CPU-heavy OLAP queries barely passes 25% CPU in the 2 vCore-sized database used in my current main project.
