Took a little digging, but the Sun server table is at http://www.oracle.com/corporate/contracts/library/sun_server_table.pdfThe reduced core multiplier is also listed in the definitions on the Technology price list (http://www.oracle.com/corporate/pricing/pricelists.html) on page 9.
One does have to wonder why Oracle considers these CPUs to be less productive or at least that's how I interpret their move to discount the CPUs.

As far as I know, the T2 chipset gets no special licensing from Oracle (it is .75 per core like any other non-Intel/AMD processor). The T1 chipset that was found on the T2000 had the .25 per core.There is an article from Sun that talks about all the oracle related things you may see regarding performance on the CoolThread chips.http://blogs.sun.com/glennf/resource/Optimizing_Oracle_CMT_v1.pdf
