Is there an FPGA big enough to emulate Sun's open-sourced Niagra core?

It'll fit fine in something like a Xilinx Virtex 5.  Of course, if you're
spending $3,000 on just the FPGA, you're probably better off just buying a
really fast computer.

The large FPGAs are really useful for simulating an asic during
development, and for very specialized types of applications.  Being able to
wire up 192 single-clock multipliers has certain uses.
