I saw in the 5.5 release notes that there were a few Edge appliance changes, such as the X-Large now being 4 vCPU, 8gb of RAM, and now a "Quad Large" that is stated to provide "additional throughput over other form factors". I deployed one, and it seems to just be a 4vCPU and 1gb of RAM offering. While our findings in large system deployments have found us wanting in CPU only (with no need for more than 1gb of RAM), am I missing some advanced features or anything that this provides? Why didn't VMware call this an "X-large" and move the 4cpu/8gb RAM offering to be the "Quad large"?
Just curious before we go and start deploying this for clients (since the 4CPU and 8gb of RAM is largely a waste of 7gb of RAM in our cases).
