1. Re: How important are large CPU caches or 64-bit CPUs for J2

Depends on the app; usually most app servers that talk to the DB are I/O bound and memory bound, not CPU bound.
I would probably go for a large amount of memory and cache. If you go with a 32 bit platform, you're limited to 2 or 3GB for your JVM. Those benchmarks are largely for apps that are CPU bound.
