It is amazing the performance they got "per server".  Also the live update of the statistics as

That was my exact strategy when I built a server.  96 GB RAM, a terabyte SSD raid 6 to hold my core databases, and tons of cores (SQL Server 2008).  Then data compression to maximize the data in memory and minimize the IO.  Keep those cores busy.
