Well, ok, 585 MIPS for a uniprocessor. That's still considerably more than the 350 PSI claims they can do with emulation on an Itanium, and they don't say how many processors they use to achieve that. I was disputing the statement that an Itanium can emulate instructions faster than z silicon. -- Tom Marchant ---------------------------------------------------------------------- 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
