No, if you read the website, it's Dolphin SCI hooked up to AMD cHT. I'll give you odds on it being late and slow. > also, <1us MPI latency sounds good, Unless Dolphin learned a lot from their previous interface, that MPI number is only achieved with 2 nodes, and goes into the toilet quickly as you add nodes and cores/node. Which is why you shouldn't trust "latency" benchmarks which just use 1 core on each of 2 nodes. -- g _______________________________________________ Beowulf mailing list, [email protected] To change your subscription (digest mode or unsubscribe) visit http://www.beowulf.org/mailman/listinfo/beowulf
