[Matthew Jonkman]

A great study by Gene Albin from the Naval Postgrad school. Extremely well done Gene! Thank you

Well worth a read, but a few interesting extracts:

In experiment two:
"The NPS High Performance Computing Center operates a Sun Microsystems 6048 "blade" system with 144 blades and 1152 CPU cores (Haferman, 2011). For our experiment we used one compute node composed of 48 AMD Opteron 6174 12-core processors with 125GB of RAM available"

Holey Christ man! I'm way beyond jealous!

Matt
