Thanks, that is what I thought. I have a vague memory of seeing some documentation from MS about how many servers they were using with the number of users, but I can't find it anymore.
My current client has 4 wfes w/ 24 GB/RAM, Quad core, 2. 4 Intel Xeon, CTUP E5-4640, and they are heavily loaded, 60-70% on average all day , all 4 boxes generate high CPU level warning at least once a week (they have a LOT of Nintex workflows). They are moving their data center to Azure and replacing this 2013 farm with a 2016/SPO hybrid farm. Given that we can getter better machines in Azure, we are tyring to decide how many WFEs we should use. Any thoughts would be appreciated.
If CPU pressure is the only thing you're experiencing, adding additional vCPUs would be appropriate. Consider scale-up instead of scale-out.
