I think that the advent of MPP (massively parallel processing) and the ability of certain processing complexes to get into the tera-flop range using 256 or 512 parallel processors indicates that it must be possible. I suspect it may be the way that the OS is set up.

Doug,

Good point but I am not sure the MPP(s) have the same architecture of the s/370-s/390's though. I don't know enough about them to really comment other than what I was told (second hand information). The comparison might/might not be valid.
