we are expanding, Therefore we signed up for a new account with sister Hostmonster
i was surprised to find out that HM is 8cpu-supported "yes, eight"
meanwhile,we are only 4cpu on the advanced bluehost, sometimes only 2cpu on old servers

i wonder if anyone enjoying 8 processors on bluehost?

more about our bluehost box..

hostmonster and bluehost are on the exact same servers. So yes, some bluehost users have 8 cpus

Technically, they purchase servers with the same tech specs, but the hosting accounts are on different servers. :D

Bluehost has been around much longer, so some of their earlier servers aren't as highly spec'd as their new servers. Both companies have 8-cpu servers though. Quite a lot, from what I've seen.

Just because its a "slower" processor speed, doesn't mean that it's actually slower. Those Xeons are quad core hyper-threading with over 1 GHz of FSB. That processor will kick the crap out of anything competing with it. Don't judge a computer by the processor speed.
