Here since a year, everything is dual opterons and some quad opterons. We have
around 20 of those (tyan motherboards). We are running FC3 64 bits but
most vservers are FC3 32 bits. Running 32 bits vservers on 64 bits kernel is
faster, sometime a lot faster, compared to a 32 bits kernel (Running 64 bits
vservers is probably faster as well).

64 bits vservers are using more memory, so running 32 bits vservers may be
a win here.

After doing various benchmarks, I would say Intel has nothing to offer.
