"Best performance" depends on many thing, like what hardware you use and what kind of VMs you run and what goals you want to achieve, so no general answer is possible.
Maybe you can ask some more concrete questions after reading the Proxmox manual: https://pve.proxmox.com/pve-docs/pve-admin-guide.html#qm_cpu?
