I am a software engineer who performs the following operations on a daily basis:
- Run multiple VMware workstations in the desktop (at least 4-5 concurrent instances).
- Build a large Java code base.
- Run an app server (WebLogic) and database (Oracle).
- Run some Java development/debugging tools such as Eclipse IDE, Fortify etc.
All of these are to be run concurrently. I normally have 20-30 applications in the desktop at any given time and do not reboot for several weeks.
I wish to purchase a laptop with a high-performance CPU + 8 GB RAM.
Can you please recommend which will be more suitable for me from the following two options?
- ThinkPad W510 with i7 i7-920XM Processor Extreme Edition (8M Cache, 2.00 GHz).
- MacBook Pro with i7-6X series processor (4MB cache, 2.66 GHz)
Has there been a benchmark of i7 processor on these systems?
Info/recommendations will be appreciated - thanks!
