Is there a simple matrix for estimating the number of cores necessary for a certain amount of indexing speed?

Hi

I am needing information for sizing of necessary CPU cores for indexer.
In capacity planning doc, indexing will consume 4 to 8 cores, and additional cores with parallelization enabled.

Is there a simple matrix where I can estimate the number of cores necessary for a certain amount of indexing speed (GB/Day or MB/sec etc)?

Thanks,

Have a look here, it shows you something in the direction of what you want. They use reference hardware and scale indexers and search heads with rising demand in indexing volume and users (searches).
