The z6 Chip is 4.2 gh, the p6 chip is 4.4 gh. The p5 chips are plus/minus 2 gh IIRC.
<snip> I believe that your statements would hold true if you were comparing an IFL on the z9 against the p6. As I understand it the p6 chip is a 1.8Ghz chip and the z9 IFL has a 1.2Ghz chip. So if you move from an AIX server using the p6 chip to LINUX on a z9 IFL you'd be losing some power. However, the IFL on the z10 has a 4.4Ghz chip in it. Based on that theoretically you could move about 2.4 full Power 595 servers to an IFL on the z10. At least you should be able to make the move at a 2 to 1 ratio. </snip> ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with the message: GET IBM-MAIN INFO Search the archives at http://bama.ua.edu/archives/ibm-main.html
