I've found in most webapp workloads, the amount of ram matters more
than anything else; I mean, until you cache all your regularly accessed
data, and my experience has been that most people tend to overbuy CPU
and skimp on the ram.

According to these tests having more ram was even slower. Anyone want to comment as to why?
