I have the opportunity to benchmark a system is based on Supermicro 6015B-8V.
It has 2x Quad Xeon E5320 1.86GHZ, 4GB DDR2 533, 1x 73GB 10k SCSI.
http://www.supermicro.com/products/system/1U/6015/SYS-6015B-8V.cfm
We can add more RAM and drives for testing purposes. Can someone suggest what
benchmarks with what settings would be desirable to see how this system
performs. I don't believe I've seen any postgres benchmarks done on a quad
xeon yet.

We've done our "standard" benchmark on a dual X5355:
http://tweakers.net/reviews/661
Verdict is that for a price/performance-ratio you're better off with a
5160, but in absolute performance it does win.
Best regards,
Arjen

Arjen,
Have you guys run your benchmark on a quad opteron board yet? I'm curious how
the dual quad core Intels compare to quad dual core opteron.
