CPU:
Configurations listed for prices are for 8 MB memory for 4D/310 and
higher. 16 MB configuration is used for the Crimson line, for the
4D/35 line except the server configuration of the 4D/35S; and the
Indigo lines (R3000 and R4000).
System disk not included for any configurations.
Crimson performance numbers assume R4000 compilers available June
1992.
4D/320 and higher performance MFLOPS figures are 1000x1000 DP Linpack.
4D/35 and below performance MFLOPS figures are 100.100 DP Linpack.
MIPS are VAX Dhrystone MIPS.
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Graphics:
VEC = 10 pixel connected (i.e.; polyline), 24 bit color, 3D,
arbitrarily rotated Vectors per second. VGX vectors are anti-aliased.
Pol = 10x10=100 pixel 24 bit, unlighted, gouraud-shaded, Z-buffered,
arbitrarily oriented triangles per second.
Tri = 10x10=50 pixel mesh, 24 bit color, unlighted, flat-shaded, Z-
buffered, arbitrarily-oriented triangles per second.
Iris Indigo Entry-level graphics support software Z-buffering.
