Sun T1000 performance

Hi

If you had a choice of processor for a general purpose web server, either:

A. T1, 8-core. (in a T1000, 8GB, 72GB SAS x 2)

or

B. Dual 1.6GHZ USIIIi (in a Sun Blade 2500 Silver Workstation, 4GB, 146GB SCSI)

Would A be significantly better than B?
Even on single-threaded tasks?

I have been offered either A or B at the same price. The 1U rack factor of the T1000 isn't an issue.

I am finding it hard to choose!!!

Thanks!

NAME
grbeep - Platform-dependent beep driver for SMBus-based hardware SYNOPSIS
beep@unit-address DESCRIPTION
The grbeep driver generates beeps on platforms (including Sun Blade 100, 150, 1500, 2500) that use SMBbus-based registers and USB key- boards. When the KIOCCMD ioctl is issued to the USB keyboard module (see usbkbm(7M)) with command KBD_CMD_BELL/KBD_CMD_NOBELL, usbkbm(7M) passes the request to the grbeep driver to turn the beep on and off, respectively.
