Number of CPU cores required (Virtual vs. physical) for video editing 4 K Prime Minister?

Hi all.

About to start my own business / video editing. I'm doing a customized version of PC. I am considering a motherboard very processor dual Xeon with maybe 64 GB of RAM and a certified Quadro 4 GB or 8 GB GPU. The 4 k I intend to work on commercials under 15 long minutes, will take place with an average of 3 video tracks and 2 audio tracks.

When it comes to running Adobe Premier Pro 5.5 or 6 (for 4K editing video and rendering), I read that it is recommended to have 12 hearts in each of the two processors. (The PDF I read was an official guide of 2015 from Intel: "Hardware Performance Guide: serious 4 K editing ')

Now, I wonder if this figure of 12 cores per processor is related to PHYSICAL cores, or ALL hearts including VIRTUAL cores (.. .If it is referred to all the hearts, so I just need to buy two 6 core processors, giving a total of 24 cores can be used.) Big price difference between a 6 core CPU and a 12 core...

The Xeon series which will be compatible with my MB is the 2600 CPU of the E5 v3 family. Stories of advice or that popular horror...!

Paul.

guide intel suggests probably 12 real hearts, possibly the v3 of E5-2680. It would be double Xeon 24/48 virtual hearts.

software Adobe does not need the features on the quadro, using the version of game/Office nvidia gtx can help save money.

If you need 10 bit out for the color correction, view maps of mfg as blackmagic, aja and others may be a better option.

have you already bought the motherboard?

Hardware requirements may vary for different types of media and project as multi-cam configurations. codecs like h264/5 are very difficult for the processor process and the gpu should be handled, but first does not currently support gpu accelerated encoding/decoding. This is what can lead to dual xeons as intel recommends. Dual cpu also have large overhead, reducing their combined processing power. Another reason why intel may recommend the 12 core dual processor. If you use the less demanding codecs such as prores or dnxhr, UC must be as powerful, and can even be possible to use a single processor. Some people transcode their sequences of difficult codecs like h264/5 prores or dnxhr as a whole work rather than buy a more powerful system to manage h264/5 when editing.

Hackers Page - Video Codecs

Intel PDF: "Hardware Performance Guide: serious 4 K editing."

It is important to note that software engineers need to write specific code to take advantage of some features like multiple nuclei (multithreading) and virtual cores (hyper-threading). Consumer applications such as Adobe Premiere Pro and Adobe After Effects already take full advantage of these features.

If you check that the tests carried out here: Tweakers Page - decide between one processor or dual CPU and read through the discussions here and other websites, you will find the results against this last sentence. software Adobe has long had problems fully multi-threads, the first is not as bad as some of the other adobe programs but can still have problems.

  • ESXi 5.1 & 5.0 - ordinal number for active Hyperthreaded Intel CPU Core

    OK, I think I asked this before, maybe, about 2 years ago but I don't remember what the answer was.

    So here's the question...

    In a host of CPU 2 where each CPU has 4 cores for a total of 8 cores BUT with technology HT (Hyperthreading) enabled, for a total of 16 cores, how can you determine what core HT is and what the ordinal position?

    I thought that the ordinal went like this...

    CPU 0:

    0 base = true core

    Base 1 = Core HT

    Base 2 = real basic

    Basic 3 = Core HT

    4 basic = true core

    5 core = Core HT

    6 basic = true core

    7 core = Core HT

    CPU 1:

    8 basic = true core

    9 core = Core HT

    Base 10 = true core

    11 core = Core HT

    12 basic = true core

    13 core = Core HT

    14 basic = true core

    15 core = Core HT

    Anyone have any ideas?

    Hyperthreading and ESXi hosts

    A host that is enabled for hyperthreading should behave similarly to a host without hyperthreading. You may need to take into consideration certain factors if you enable hyperthreading, however.

    ESXi hosts manage time processor intelligently in order to ensure that the load is distributed smoothly on CPU cores in the system. Logical processors on the same core have consecutive numbers of CPU, so that CPU 0 and 1 are on the first core set, CPU 2 and 3 are on the kernel, second and so on. Virtual machines are preferentially on demand on two different cores rather than on the two logical processors on the same kernel.

    If there is no work for a logical processor, it is put in a stopped state, which releases its resources to enforcement and allows the virtual machine running on the other logical processor on the same kernel to use the resources of the full implementation of the core. VMware scheduler correctly represents for this downtime and the load of a virtual machine running with all the resources of a core more than a virtual machine running on a basis of one half. This approach to processor management ensures that the server does not violate standard ESXi resources allocation rules.

    Consider that your management needs before you enable the processor affinity on servers using hyperthreading. For example, if you link a virtual machine of high priority to the CPU 0 and one other high-priority CPU 1, two virtual machines virtual machine must share the same physical core. In this case, it may be impossible to respect requests for resources of these virtual machines. Ensure that all custom settings affinity of meaning for a hyperthreading system.

  • in vm CPU cores

    Hello

    Running windows 2003 standard 64-bit vm and try to get allows them to use multiple cores CPU instead of multiple vcpus.

    As a test, I gave the vcpu image 4 x and it displays correctly 4 graphics processor in the Manager of tasks and 4 processors in Device Manager.

    I also tried setting the cpuid.coresPerSocket using different values (2, 4 etc.) but that does not increase the amount of graphics and the specified processors.

    I it is dropped back to 1 and 2 vcpu and tried carrots by socket yet still no extra processor graphics.

    Is there anything else I should do as the plan is to get 4 cores for a sql database instead of having to use several vcpu for licensing reasons.

    That's right, as you do not increase the number of vCPU'. Example: If you have a host with 4 dual-core CPUS (8 cores) and run Windows 2003 SE on it, get physical Windows is reported that there are 4 CPU with 2 hearts of each. Even that Windows 2003 SE is limited to 4 CPUS, it would still run on all 8 cores.

    In a virtual machine, it gets reported that you assigned. Suppose that 4 vCPU. If Windows thinks that it works on 4 CPUS with the nucleus of one (!). So now the physical box that he must deal with a maximum of 4 cores (out of 8).

    Change that and let the guest to run on all 2 4 CPU cores, you must assign 8 vCPU for prompt and set parameter 2. Then Windows will run on 8 cores because he sees 4 CPU with 2 hearts of each. And Windows 2003 himself is limited by the CPU is not carrots.

  • VSphere essentials 8 cpu cores

    Hi all

    We recently have quote a customer to purchase vsphere essentials with a server that will run 2 processors 6 hearts of each.

    After a month, that the customer has accepted the quote if we order the server, but we noticed it came with 2 CPUs, 8 cores on each. We always evaluate vsphere esxi 4.1 and we haven't bought yet most of license. The reason to upgrade to vsphere essentials was to migrate 3-4 very old physical servers to this new server. No need to HA or vmotion is necessary. We needed an inexpensive way to get rid of these old servers.

    Can someone explain to us what will be the situation if buy us the essentials license and insert it on vsphere? Esxi 4.1 vsphere will continue to operate with limited cpu core feature or it will prevent all our VMs to stop working?

    Thank you

    I can't answer your question with certainty, and I think the only one who can is VMware itself.

    My guess is that it can work, but you're probably violating the EULA.

    What I actually wanted to mention are the fact that some harware like HP providers offer a known BIOS setting 'disable Core processor'. This feature allows to disable some carrots.

    of http://h20000.www2.hp.com/bc/docs/support/SupportManual/c01905798/c01905798.pdf

    When to turn off the processor cores

    While disabling the carrots may seem paradoxical to provide superior performance, there are at least three situations in which the disabling processor cores may be beneficial.

    -Use of power reduction. Disabling the processor cores reduces processor power consumption. If a server is used in an environment that is not heavily dependent on multithreading hearts, by disabling the can reduce energy consumption without significantly affecting performance.

    -Increase overall performance. Some applications take advantage of higher frequency of basis rather than extra processing cores. When Turbo Mode is activated for processors Intel Nehalem, savings on electricity and heat produced by disabling the processor cores allows the remaining sons operate at a higher frequency than their rated speed. In the specific application environments, this could actually increase the overall performance of the system.

    -Meet the licensing issues. Some software are permitted on a basis of by heart. Deactivation of the cores allows an administrator to match the number of active cores on a server with licensing requirements. However, some software that is allowed on a per-core basis may not recognize the deactivation of carrots.

  • set-vm error because the number of CPU

    I try to change the number of CPUs and I get an error that the numbers do not say is that (the number of virtual sockets) * (number of virtual sockets) ! = total number of cores. My question is how can I change the number of virtual sockets and the number of virtual sockets and not! the total number.

    then set the virtual socket number to 4 and the number of base by socket to 4 the total number of base become = 16

    Windows recognizes this as the core? and it works with that because it supports the core 64?

    or not? It recognizes the slot as a new processor and install 4 cpu and it does not install or update...?

  • VM CPU cores


    Hi, is it possible to allocate a VM CPU cores, suppose for example a virtual machine has 2 cores per processor and 2vCPU - is it possible. and what is the advantage rather that say assign 4vCPU?

    Yes, it is possible. Some operating systems do not support a large number of sockets (processors), but allow multi-core processors. If you for example 4 vCPUs for an OS that doesn't support 2-shot, you will need to present virtual multi-core vCPUs at the prompt. Another reason for multi-core vCPUs could be per-socket licensing for applications.

  • How to change the number of processors / cores

    I have virtual machines that I have to move periodically between 3 computers main host that I use:

    1 Intel Core 2 Quad CPU with Windows 7 Home Premium 64 - bit - 1 processor with 4 cores

    2 Intel Core i7-2630QM CPU with Windows 7 Home Premium 64 bit - 1 processor with 4 cores

    3 Intel Core 2 Duo T7700 CPU VT with Windows XP 64 bits - 1 processor with 2 hearts

    Hosts running VMWare workstation 7.

    Most of my virtual machines running XP 32 bit and have been initially created for my 3 platform.

    When I move my machines between computers I see that the parameters of the Virtual Machine for my change of processor in (for me)
    in unpredictable ways. Sometimes it shows 1 processor and gives me a choice of up to 4 cores.
    in other cases (always on a 4 base platform) 1 single processor with 1 core, in other cases, with 1 core 2 processors.

    In most cases, my freedom of choice is limited, because the selection of the number of cores is grayed out.

    When I try to make changes by editing the vmx file, I find them ineffective (no change).

    The other problem I think is that my VMs run VERY SLOWLY on my i7 with 8 GB platform!
    I have no idea if this is related to the improper setting of the number of processores / cores (I'm not able to define
    1-4-hearts and spin with settingsd 1.1 instead).

    Could someone please help me understand how:

    1. check / change the number of processors / threads on an existing virtual machine.

    2. how to set properly for an i7 processor

    Thanks in advance,

    Andrew

    1. providers that create virtual machines are in a race - they assume that customers use this version which proposes to use the virtual processors more ;-)
    For some workloads inside a virtual machine - say Oracle or other database and applications servers such that it is sometimes really good idea to use more than one virtual processor

    2. virtual machines to scale differently with more CPU than the real computers.
    Virtual machines are for host applications.
    This means that the host schedules the time CPU to each virtual machine.
    If you follow this thought that you will see that a virtual machine that uses one virtual processor has a greater chance to run then a VM with 2 virtual processors.
    A VM with 4 cores running on a host with 4 cores will spend a lot of wait time - it may work only when the host reports the application of Workstation 4 hearts are available.

    A virtual machine with only 1 vCPU will probably be able to run all the time without any waiting time.
    This is why usually with a single CPU VMs feel better to the needs of the user.

    This translates into the best practical advice: assign a CPU unless you really notice you need more.

    3. probably, you try to change the values, while the virtual machine is suspended?

    4.
    numvcpus = '8 '.
    cpuid.coresPerSocket = "4".

    We hear two processors with 4 cores of each

    numvcpus = "4".
    cpuid.coresPerSocket = "4".

    means a processors with 4 cores

    numvcpus = '2 '.
    cpuid.coresPerSocket = '1 '.

    We hear two processors with a carrot

    No effect? n ' mind that not all clients can use 2 or more processors
    For example, XP is limited in this respect.
    Some guests may also not change the number of CPUS after what they have been installed

  • Question about CPU cores

    I've had computers since the 98 so I'm not a beginner, but I'm also no computer genius.

    I got this new laptop in 2013. So far I have had a few problems with it, but since I also have a desktop computer (works in 32 bit Vista), I could get things to normal by doing some research on google. Nothing major since the last time I restored it to the plant that was in June of this year.

    Anyway, recently I came "Open Hardware Monitor" mainly to check the temperature, and I noticed it says that there are only 2 CPU cores. I find it weird because I thought it was supposed to be a Quad-Core.

    I was wondering how I can go on double check that and let the other 2 cores? Who would even wise to do?

    I don't really like for all the eye-candy as much as I want my machine to be fast and allow multitasking. I also plan to upgrade the RAM at the present time it is still running factory - I think that 6 G, but I would like to upgrade to the best and the best as well.

    I have a Samsung's Ext to 5 t hard drive soon and I want to just make sure that my mess is as soon as possible within reasonable limits of course. I try not to fry or something. I want it to run at maximum performance.

    In any case, I appreciate any help or advice I can get. Thank you for your time. Amanda

    Just uncheck it. The default is to allow all processors to run. Somehow your system has limited the number of operational cores to 2. Uncheck and reboot and recheck the Task Manager

    Any ideas? I tried msconfig and reset the number of processors, but then it resets the memory to 2 GB so I have to reset that and restart it to recognize all the 6 GB of ram. but then my cpu is a nucleus! It seems that I have a dual core cpu and 2 GB of RAM or a simple core cpu and 6 GB ram! ATM I'm on a single processor core with 6 GB of ram. I think the only thing I can do is reset the cpu in msconfig and reboot and see if it works, but then it will set the RAM to 2 GB. I 'afraid' to uncheck the CPU and RAM at the same time, incase of my laptop computer won't load at all. What do you think?

    It is not too much a problem; If I had only 2/3 GB of RAM, then it would be a problem, would be just nice to have my CPU dual core of return!

  • NIC physical or virtual dedicated & vlan for vCenter Heartbeat?

    I am writing a paper on the recommendations and requirements of vCenter Heartbeat 1...

    It seems unclear to me if the functionality of pulsations of vCenter need dedicated physical NIC when VC is running in a virtual machine?

    VC goes. Heart rate requires dedicated physical NIC or only vNIC & lt;-& gt; dedicated vSwitch is required?

    Thanks in advance

    : o).

    I guess that your VC is running in a virtual machine? VC with Heartbeat requires a minimum of two vNIC with every heartbeat (each vNIC, but the first) vNIC on a dedicated vSwitch. Since a physical NETWORK card can only below a unique vSwitch, this configuration requires at least two cards physical network. Basically, this means that you need at least two network adapters for and two physical network adapters to configure the heartbeat in a VC run in a virtual machine. For redundancy reasons, it makes sense to have multiple physical network cards in a vSwitch for grouping of NETWORK cards. Therefore, you should really have at least four physical NICs (two by vSwitch) in a production environment.

  • Number of CPU of the license server to the servers of a socket

    I searched the community but found no solution or similar results. Maybe it's so trivial...

    So the question is on the (Macrovision FlexLM) license server and how this licensing system for guests.

    We use vCenter Server v2.5 3 update and license server is running on the same hardware. Are all ESX v3.5 hosts and update levels varies between 2 update and update 4. In this thread (Enterprise license) David Weinstein said with an example how many CPU is consumed from the license server.

    You can use 16 CPU Enterprise License 'package' in different ways:

    • 2 servers with 8 CPU sockets populated = 2 * 8 = 16 CPU of the license server

    • 4 servers with 4 CPU sockets populated = 4 * 4 = 16 CPU of the license server

    • 8 servers with 2 CPU sockets populated = 8 * 2 = 16 CPU of the license server

    Or you can do any combination of fill 16 CPU:

    • 1 server with 4-socket full CPU + 1 server with 8 sockets populated CPU + 2 servers with 2 sockets populated CPU = 484 = 16 CPU of the license server

    So far, everything is correct and understandable, but when you add a server socket for the things the soup becomes interesting. Servers a socket use only 1 CPU since the license server and which is correct from the point of view License Manager server.

    QUESTION (S):

    1. Is an enterprise license for the ESX (up to two CPU sockets) the right to split into two servers a socket?

    2. In the opposite case and an enterprise license for ESX (up to two CPU sockets) is related to a single physical host and there is a socket server, how the license server should deliver CPU from the pool of license? CPU in a relationship?

    3. A good way to request a report where the license server shipped number of CPU's match with one, two, four or eight socket servers? Or is it all good 3rd third-party tool for that?
