Performance

I'm distributing a table over four machines with different
specs.
How heavily should I weigh...
1. Processor (P3's and P4's)
2. Processor clock speed
3. Memory
4. Bus speed
5. Anything else?
...when deciding who gets more work and who gets less.
Let's say it's an OLAP system, but if anyone would like
to answer for OLTP, I'd appreciate it, too.
Thank you in advance,
Andrewin the absence of more information on your application,
look up the SPEC CPU 2000 integer base performance for
each proc (www.spec.org)
