EM64T performance by
George Macdonald
There have been lots of comments, including mine, on the absence of Xeon
EM64T 64-bit performance results... anywhere. The only thing I've come

Yousuf Khan
SGI Altix systems again. A cluster of 20 512-way Itanium2 Altixes connected
together with NUMAlink. There's also some talk of SGI re-architecting the
cluster so that it becomes 2048-way Altixes rather than 512-way Altixes.

Actually this sort of took me by surprise, I wasn't even aware that they
