I thought the z10 4.4GHz chips were the answer to the CPU intensive issue (but probably not all).
Ken -----Original Message----- John McKown <snip> I still think that z/Linux under z/VM will outperform non-CPU, high I/O intensive, workloads better than Linux/Intel. I've had some people indicate that the "enterprise" level Intel servers can approach the z's I/O rate. But I am unsure. <unsnip> John ---------------------------------------------------------------------- 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 ---------------------------------------------------------------------- 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
