earlier thread http://www.garlic.com/~lynn/2010m.html#43 IBM 3883 Manuals referencing few past posts (about processing required to handle all the TPF/ACP reservations in the world) mentioning cellphone xscale processor (in TREO) rated at a thousand MIPS http://www.garlic.com/~lynn/2010b.html#79 Happy DEC-10 Day http://www.garlic.com/~lynn/2010b.html#80 Happy DEC-10 Day xscale/arm reference: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ARM_architecture newer generation of ARM processors are even faster. http://www.arm.com/products/processors/index.php above mentions that there are already 20 billion ARM processosrs and more than 10 million ARM processors ship everyday. 3031 was one mip, 3032 was 3mips, and 3033 was 4.5mips. -- virtualization experience starting Jan1968, online at home since Mar1970 ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to [email protected] with the message: GET IBM-MAIN INFO Search the archives at http://bama.ua.edu/archives/ibm-main.html
