Ask HN: ARM Cavium ThunderX (96 Physical Cores) for Web Application Servers?

Hi,

While reading the BlackBlaze Compute Story I came across, Packet's ARM Offering. (https://www.packet.net/bare-metal/servers/compute/)

Their c1.large.arm offers ARM Cavium ThunderX with 96 Physical Cores running at 2.0 Ghz.

Has anybody used such a configuration for Web Application Servers? Possibly something running Go?

Since many web applications need high concurrency and wait on DB queries, I think having these large number of cores might be beneficial.

Any thoughts and inputs on this will be well appreciated.
