As to the mega flops the facility had. Anyone have the numbers?
Sorry to ask these semi off topic question but I was asked about them
and am at a loss to find documentation that doesn't. Cost $$
As a side question anyone work with the facility? Any stories you
would like to share would be interesting.

Unless you're a serious masochist, I suggest you drop that line of
inquiry. None of the HLL's support the Vector Processor so you're
stuck using Assembler Language if you want to use it. And setting up
the mechanisms for true vector processing is a non-trivial exercise.
