... The fact the IBM, when announcing new hardware, usually prints MIPS in their charts says that it is still a valid number. ... No it doesn't!!!
When IBM benchmarked the z/990 (& 890), they dropped some workloads and added new ones. These cannot be compared to z/900, nor 9672, because they missed a step!
