as an aside ... the peak z196 i/o benchmarks mentioned that 14 SAPs have peak 2.2M SSCH/sec (100% utilization) ... but recommendations are to keep SAP utilization below 70% (1.5m SSCH/sec) 101 zE12 processors are rated at 75BIPS (or 743MIPS/processor) compared to 80 z196 processors at 50BIPS (or 624MIPS/processor) ... for a factor of 1.2 times increase (per processor). 16 zE12 SAPS then might have peak of almost 3M SSCH/sec (100% utilization) or approx 2M/sec at 70% utilization. past posts mentioning 2.2M SSCH/sec & peak z196 I/O benchmark http://www.garlic.com/~lynn/2012m.html#4 Blades versus z was Re: Turn Off Another Light - Univ. of Tennessee http://www.garlic.com/~lynn/2012m.html#5 Blades versus z was Re: Turn Off Another Light - Univ. of Tennessee http://www.garlic.com/~lynn/2012m.html#13 Intel Confirms Decline of Server Giants HP, Dell, and IBM http://www.garlic.com/~lynn/2012m.html#28 I.B.M.
