  13. The iPSC/860 provides forced types to speed-up communications in highly
  14. synchronous computations. Would anyone know what the improvement is
  15. (in mu. secs) for nearest neighbor connections. The figures i have are
  16. about 70-80mu. secs but i don't recall the source of that information.

  18. Thank you for any pointer.
