Supported CPUs
Vector is designed to run on all modern x86-based hardware.
The 64-bit Linux distribution can run on all 64-bit x86 CPUs from both Intel and AMD.
Note: CHAR and VARCHAR operations can gain performance benefits from SSE4.2 instructions. Check with your hardware vendor whether SSE4.2 instructions are supported.
Vector uses multiple cores for handling concurrent queries and if you enable parallel execution, a single statement can use multiple CPU cores.
