Jaguar at a glance: Cray XT Top500 rank: 2 + 8 1.64-petaflops peak theoretical performance 1.059 + 0.205-petaflops actual performance on HPL benchmark program 182,000 processing cores AMD quad-core OpteronTM 2.3 gigahertz processors InfiniBand network Cray SeaStar network interface and router 362 terabytes of memory 578 terabytes per second of memory bandwidth 284 gigabytes per second of input/output bandwidth 10-gigabyte-per-second connections to ESnet and Internet 2 networks High-Performance Storage System scales to store increasing amounts of simulation data Spider, a 10-petabyte Lustre-based shared file system, connects to every system in the ORNL computing complex Disk subsystem transfers data at greater than 200 gigabytes per second... These are the specs for Jaguar, a modified Cray XP supercomputer running at the Oak Ridge research labs.. Wonder if they'd let us load up a copy of Vista.....

Maurice_King Posted November 21, 2008 Share Posted November 21, 2008 Probably crap rates since they aren't designed for game crunching and don't (generally support any graphics ) but rather drive multiple dumb terminals. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

John Bosch Posted November 22, 2008 Share Posted November 22, 2008 Peta = 10^15 or 1,000,000,000,000,000. A "flop" is a floating point operation (i.e non-integer mathematical operation). I know, I know ... NERD!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
