We use platform d63a (BigIP 6400).
As I read the hardware portfolio F5 says that 8800 uses quad-core cpu's???
We have problems with our tmm load on the bigip 6400.
The load is about 80% that tmm process uses.
Now we plan to do a hardware upgrade from 6400 to 8800.
Would that change made tmm 2 times faster?
What about your experiences???
Many thanx for help

The 8800 is about four times faster than the 6400 for CPU-bound operations; it has 4 2.6GHz CPUs, and TMM can use 90% of each. For comparison, TMM on a 6400 has access to 100% of one 2.0 GHz CPU.
The F5 Performance Report (http://www.f5.com/reports/f5-performance-report.pdf) may be a good reference for you. It covers many of the typical metrics regarding the 8800’s performance.

Which release version do we have to use at least???
Thanx for your help
Sorry for the delayed response. The 8800 is supported on v9.4 and higher.
