- They have published benchmark results of a 20 processor SPARCCenter
- running DP Linpack 1000x1000 in a single, parallelised process.
-
- So I assume they have it well enough to run benchmarks on it.
-
- The results are published in "SPARCcenter and SPARCserver Performance Brief",
- Nov 1992. (see comp.arch, ``Parallelised SPECfp92 on the SPARCcenter 2000''
- in <1e895hINNm9u@grapevine.EBay.Sun.COM> for a summary)
