An article says that

In the future when you quote an article and copy graphics from it, please give us the source link for validation.

As a general statement, figure one is *usually* optimal because by configuring a "wide" VM (one in which sockets are used over cores) it allows ESXi to place vCPUs into the optimal NUMA node for scheduling purposes. Things have changed a bit as of 6.5 and 6.7 so, again, this is just a general statement.

Sorry, the article is Chinese, so I did not give the source links, and the article is only said that Figure TWO( not ONE . The clerical error above, SORRY!) is  better

So my real question is  :     WHY      Figure TWO's architecture is more optimized than Figure one's,

首先谢谢您的回答。很抱歉,文章是中文的,所以我没有给出URL 链接。而且文章也仅仅是说图二的架构更合理。我就想知道,为什么图二的架构更加合理。

Regardless of the language, please provide source links next time.

the article is only said that Figure TWO( not ONE . The clerical error above, SORRY!) is  better

Without context (which the source would provide), option two is generally not "better" in a generic sense because it makes some assumptions which may not be true. But taking two images potentially out of context from the original article is difficult to make commentary on.
