Yeah, we've had this problem with scaled 3950 clusters for a couple years.
A good problem to have, but annoying all the same. Just make your xterm really
big :)
I had an Oracle application with a T2000, never could get it past a
fraction of what it was capable of. The more cores and threads keep
coming out just run slower for the vast majority of applications, its
a shame.
I wouldn't compare Niagara-family cpu's with current multicore x86 cpu's
in the same sentence. Different ideology, different use-case. I'd be a
happy pumpkin to run busy websites on T5240/T5440's, only if RHEL would
support it.
Your single thread application will almost certainly run faster on a brand
spanking new 5600-series Xeon than a 5000-series Xeon for example. Sorry
AMD-guys, don't remember the model denominators :)
