The Linux Scheduler: A Decade of Wasted Cores

I do know this for sure:

'So it's not just "better", it's "Better" with a capital 'B'. Nothing else out there comes even close. The Linux dcache is simply in a class all its own.'

I do realize that the dcache is not a direct relation to the scheduler (but will certainly impact it), but I trust that performance enthusiasts will go to great lengths to extend Linux's top benchmarks in TPC and elsewhere.

If your looking at the results I am, I see a system with with 28x the CPU's being 23x faster, after 10 years of cpu development. And substantially more expensive in total costs too? Are we looking at the same thing? Did I get the math wrong? ( always a possibility ). Yes, it's a much bigger topline number, but it doesn't seem very impressive given all the infrastructure differences?
