Orion Server Requirements

Wondering if someone could clear up some confusion. I was speaking with SW tech support this morning. They told me that Orion 9 does not utilize multi-core processors or hyperthreading (although they're working on it). I'm working on specs for new servers. However, I found online that SW recommended (not minimum) specs for a server is a Dual 3 GHz Dual Core server. :-?

Can anyone clarify?

Continuing with this.... I would recommend that if you have added any additional Orion modules (NetFlow, VoIP, wireless, APM) or think you ever will, I your dual core server will certainly be able to utilize the extra brain power. Plenty of memory is of course always appreciated!
