Bueno, para que vean el poder de los apple
Como me da pereza traducir, les coloco apartes de la nota:
When the Hypersonic Missile Technology (HMT) team at COLSA Corporation and the U.S. Army need to model hypersonic flight on a computer system, they’ll no longer have to wait two months to get results.
The HMT team, headed by senior scientist Dr. John Medeiros, now has access to one of the world’s largest and most powerful computers: a supercluster of 1,566 64-bit, dual-processor Apple Xserve G5 servers.
Called MACH5 — an acronym for Multiple Advanced Computers for Hypersonics — the Apple cluster “gives us more than 60 times the computational power of our current production machine,” says Medeiros. What used to take two months can now be done in a day
y los más emocionante de esto es:
“A single person using a hand-held calculator — without pausing to eat or sleep — would need more than two million years to calculate what the Apple supercluster can calculate in a single second.”
La velocidad de procesamiento de clustes es mas de 25 teraflops,
osea mas de 25 trillones de operaciones de punto flotante por segundo... que gono... de velocidad y rendimiento
