I'm asking because I need to increase my pool's CPU resources, the easy way is buy the same processor, but thinking in a more powerful option, RAM and networking features are ok, but compute performance is being starvest by some VM.

I have an old pool, which I had to upgrade some years ago, but no more original model components were available, so I had to buy a new model, new cpu generation, so it became an heterogenous pool. The problem was not the lost of new cpu features, the problem is that time to time, when I performe a live migration VM, it hangs and I must reboot the VM.

Keeping in mind to avoid and heterogeneus pool, I think the safest option is 5220S, because 6226R implies more changes which I unknow in the architecture, maybe new features, that's what I unknow.

Any piece of advice?

5% sounds too much for me, but I'll check it in some populated pools (with host's cpu below 80%) to have a better idea.

Well, for me was not clear untill your current answer. As you can see, my conclussions were wrong, but that was just a suggestion.

You are welcome
