I think what you're thinking of is Advanced Clusterings "Breakin": http://www.advancedclustering.com/software/breakin.html Both downloads and a git repo of what's needed to build your own. Last updated in July with a 3.3.4 kernel. I ran it on my new home desktop and it clocked 84 GFlops. It would have been #1 on the very first Top500 in June 1993 beating the CM-5 at LANL by a considerable margin (and it has the same amount of RAM, 32GB). ;-) cheers, Chris -- Christopher Samuel Senior Systems Administrator VLSCI - Victorian Life Sciences Computation Initiative Email: sam...@unimelb.edu.au Phone: +61 (0)3 903 55545 http://www.vlsci.org.au/ http://twitter.com/vlsci _______________________________________________ Beowulf mailing list, Beowulf@beowulf.org sponsored by Penguin Computing To change your subscription (digest mode or unsubscribe) visit http://www.beowulf.org/mailman/listinfo/beowulf
