It is indeed a Octane with IRIX64 6.5.

Hi, I have pymol 0.97 installed on a sgi workstation. However it keeps
the old picture when I move the molecule, which seems like a long time
delay. I wonder if people have similar experience.
What kind of SGI? Anything less powerful than an Octane is going to be
pretty useless for PyMOL. O still runs well on them, but a $500 PC
with a
$50 NVidia card will be superior for most tasks. (Unfortunately, most
PIs
are reluctant to replace a machine they payed $40,000 for back in '99.)
