In terms of raw compute power,
excluding I-O what is the ratio between 1 high end Sun engine, 1
PowerPC chip, 1 high end Intel chip (3.4 ghz or something like these
days and 1 Z990 engine?
...
Depending on who you talk to a z/990 is roughly equivalent to 2.5-3 Ghz.
It's getting to the point that if you want compute-intensive go mid-range;
if you want I/O go mainframe.
