<P>-------------- Original message -------------- <BR>From: "Douglas Eadline" <deadline@eadline.org> <BR><SOMEWHAT plug shameless><BR>> As many of you know Intel is releasing the Harpertown <BR>> next week at SC07. I will have a white paper with my <BR>> requisite NAS parallel MPI results. Appro commission the <BR>> paper so I will be hanging around their booth next week <BR>> handing out the paper. (book geek that I am). <BR>> I cannot mention any numbers until next week <BR>> and the white paper will eventually show up on <BR>> Appro's website, but I can say it worth taking a <BR>> look at the numbers :) <BR></P>
<P>Cool Doug!</P>
<P>So are your numbers consistent with:</P>
<P>A 2 socket, 8 core Linpack number of about ~77 GFLOPs</P>
<P>Stream Triad for the same 2 socket board of ~8.6 GBytes/sec.</P>
<P>Are the numbers you are reporting from Appro Dual Socket Blades? I did not think they had announced Harpertown Blades yet. As I recall the Tri-Labs win was for Dual Socket Barcelona's and there Intel blades solution was Clovertown. Can you clarify without violating an embargo ... ;-) ...</P>
<P>Cheers,</P>
